South Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) can be challenging to treat, but at South Psychology, we offer therapeutic approaches to help individuals with NPD understand and manage their emotions. Our dedicated team is committed to guiding you on your inner-self work journey.
Our Approach:
Individualized Therapy: We create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your narcissistic traits, lack of empathy, and emotional complexities. Our evidence-based approaches aim to foster self-awareness and growth.
Cognitive-Behavioral Techniques: Through cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), we address distorted thought patterns and promote healthier coping strategies. You’ll learn to navigate relationships and emotions more effectively.
Holistic Healing: Beyond therapy sessions, we consider lifestyle factors, self-esteem, and overall well-being. Our goal is to empower you toward positive change.
How We Can Help:
Self-Reflection: Explore the roots of narcissistic traits and work toward healthier self-perception.
Emotional Regulation: Learn tools to manage emotions, build empathy, and improve relationships.
Supportive Environment: South Psychology provides a space where transformation is possible.

Transforming Narcissistic Patterns: A Compassionate Approach via IFS & EFT
Do you struggle with perfectionism, a fragile sense of self-worth, or difficulty forming truly intimate connections? Narcissistic traits often feel like a necessary armor, but they can leave you feeling isolated and unfulfilled. As a therapist specialized in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help you look beneath the surface-level defensiveness to heal the root causes of these behaviors.
IFS Approach: Rather than pathologizing your behavior, we will work with "parts" of you that may act arrogant, controlling, or dismissive. We will get curious about these protective parts—understanding that they are likely guarding deep-rooted feelings of shame, inadequacy, or early relational trauma. By helping these parts relax and healing the underlying wounded "exiles," we can foster authentic self-worth from within.
EFT Approach: We will explore how your fear of vulnerability drives patterns of withdrawal or manipulation in your relationships. I will help you identify the cycle of disconnection you get stuck in and support you in learning to express your deeper needs in ways that invite secure connection rather than conflict.
My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can let down your guard, build true empathy, and build genuine, lasting relationships. I CAN ALSO HELP FAMILY MEMBERS OF NPD.

James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
I have worked with many profoundly narcissistic people over the years, so I have a depth of understanding of the issues and dynamics involved. Although such persons tend to evoke suspicion and contempt (along with fascination and idealization) I can also see them sympathetically in terms of the profound liabilities of their way of being. Real love rarely penetrates them, and when it does it quickly flies away. Patient, careful, reliable therapeutic work can facilitate the development of alternative behavioral/emotional patterns that are more satisfying (and less punishing for others).

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) with a compassionate and faith-based approach, recognizing the complexities involved in working with individuals exhibiting narcissistic traits. Integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles, I create a safe space to explore the underlying issues contributing to narcissism. Biblical teachings on humility, compassion, and selflessness are incorporated into therapy sessions to guide individuals toward self-awareness and transformation. I encourage prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on the Christian virtues of love and empathy. While maintaining professional boundaries, I collaborate with clients to address destructive patterns, fostering a sense of responsibility and accountability within the framework of their faith. This integrated approach aims to promote personal growth, humility, and a deeper understanding of one's identity in Christ while navigating the challenges associated with narcissistic personality disorder.

Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
If you have a family member with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, you know how difficult it can be to maintain a relationship with this person. Counseling can be very helpful to help you choose what and how to manage this situation: whether to navigate the rough water and maintain the relationship, or limit the relationship in ways to make it less harmful to you, or figure out how to cut off ties with the narcissistic person while still maintaining your loving relationships with other family members.
