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.

Narcissism
Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
We have extensive background supporting folks through narcissistic trauma recovery. As well, on occasion, we will work with folks who identify as Narcissistic and are willing to engage in recovery. We recognize this takes strong footing in intersectional framework to interrupt power abuse, as well, some narcissistic expression is trauma based and can benefit from dyadic internal parts work and the recovery may/may not take as long as an entitlement origin NPD. Trauma based NPD can sometimes be hidden amongst other trauma based symptoms.
Some is entitlement based and requires a person to grow their existential field of relational compassion and actual empathy. Typically these situations require others in the family/close circle system to not enable and be collaboratively on board with holding the person with NPD to account for their behaviors. This is also true for those who are malignantly codependent and controlling. If that systemic agreement is not in place, often the person with NPD will lean on the enablers to try to escape accountability. NPD is unfortunately at pandemic like levels culturally in the hegemon, so it takes a strong culture of willingness to call people acting out into account -- they will not stop on their own. If you are seeking care for a loved one with this issue, as much as it would be wonderful to magically heal them, likely it is best to get your own care first! NPD Recovery is wonderful, worth it, and often takes many, many, many years of dedicated care! Loved ones and caring bystanders need to learn how to hold up a stop sign to egregious behavior out of care for the target first and helping the Narcissist to mitigate moral and even physical injury to the target/scapegoat. We need this on all levels, even national and global levels!
In some cases, NPD may be physiologically driven by mast cell flares, mold toxin exposure, chronic allergies, lingering infections, continued concussive symptoms ... -- in these cases, which are very different than conditioning, we would employ a more functional and integrative strategy.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Narcissistic personality disorder can involve patterns around self-esteem, sensitivity to criticism, and challenges in maintaining satisfying relationships. In therapy, we focus on creating a steady, nonjudgmental space to explore these dynamics with honesty and curiosity. Over time, the work centers on developing a more stable and grounded sense of self, increasing emotional awareness, and building more reciprocal, fulfilling connections with others.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, or struggle to keep close relationships, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats relationship and interpersonal issues typically using Functional Analytic Psychotherapy and/or Assertiveness Training. These approaches combine new insights with new skills so you can be more effective in your relationships and re-build damaged relationships.
