Theresa McCay Boutross
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCSW, CADC. CMFT
Navigating the aftermath of narcissistic abuse in relationships can be an incredibly challenging and isolating experience. As a therapist specializing in this area, I provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to unpack their experiences, recognize the patterns of manipulation and control, and begin the journey to healing.
Clients often find themselves grappling with feelings of confusion, inadequacy, and self-doubt as a result of their experiences. My approach focuses on helping you reclaim your voice, rebuild your self-esteem, and develop healthier relationship dynamics. Together, we will explore the impact of narcissistic behavior, validate your emotions, and work towards establishing boundaries that honor your well-being.
By incorporating evidence-based therapeutic techniques, we will empower you to cultivate resilience and a sense of autonomy, ultimately guiding you toward a path of recovery and self-discovery. You deserve to heal, thrive, and create fulfilling connections—let’s embark on this transformative journey together.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In assisting patients dealing with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), as well as their loved ones affected by it, I provide compassionate support and practical strategies to navigate the complexities of these relationships. Through therapy, we explore the impact of NPD on both the individual with the disorder and their loved ones, including the challenges in communication, emotional dynamics, and boundary-setting. I offer psychoeducation about NPD, helping patients and their loved ones understand the underlying traits and behaviors associated with the disorder. Additionally, we work on developing coping skills, assertiveness techniques, and self-care strategies to manage the effects of NPD on relationships and promote emotional well-being. The goal is to empower patients and their loved ones to set healthy boundaries, foster resilience, and navigate these relationships with greater understanding and compassion.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
There is unfortunately a great deal of misinformation about NPD in the media and online. It is also frequently misdiagnosed for other conditions. I have experience both assessing and treating NPD. In terms of assessment, I use reliable clinical instruments (i.e., those used in clinical trials) to establish/rule out this diagnosis. For therapy, I apply several forms of contemporary psychodynamic therapies shown to be helpful in treating personality disorders (i.e., Transference-Focused Psychotherapy, Supportive-Expressive Therapy, and Mentalization-Based Treatment). I have published professional works (i.e., articles and a book) on psychodynamic therapy as well. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.
