Narcissism
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.

Narcissism
Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
This disorder is easy to villify but the reality is that narcissistic vulnerabilities or full fledged narcissistic personality disorder are not rare in our culture and people who struggle with these vulnerabilities are often in pain. They may not look like it but they often are. The people that are close to them are typically in pain as well. And often confused and overwhelmed. My past training and experience has made me able to work with the complexity inherent in these issues and to work with both the severe and more mild presentations. And with people who are in relationship with them. Narcissists are not a monolith and again there is no substitute for solid understanding and long term clinical experience.

Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I love taking on new challenges and adventures. My approach focuses on each patient as an individual. I do not expect everyone to fit in a one size fits all box. I have a flexible approach that I individualize based on patient preference, goals, time availability, and life needs. While at the same time I am trained in many evidence-based treatment protocols that can provide a lot of structure and direction. I help individuals explore means of being more intentional with how they approach each day, life, and even the smallest decisions. I strive to help people achieve a more desirable life balance and improved quality of life by their own definition of what that means to them.
