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.

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.
