Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I possess a wealth of expertise in effectively addressing the complex issue of narcissistic abuse. I have created and published extensive resources on this topic, including audios, videos, eBooks, and The Narcissistic Abuse Survival Tool Kit. These resources have helped thousands of individuals on their journey towards healing from the trauma of narcissistic abuse. This form of abuse often leaves individuals feeling bewildered, isolated, and trapped in a perpetual cycle of walking on eggshells. My approach is rooted in fostering a deep understanding of the covert tactics employed by narcissists, such as gaslighting, manipulation, projection, and DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender). I guide clients in learning to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, a crucial step towards reclaiming their lives. Furthermore, I incorporate EMDR therapy to support individuals in coping with the effects of a narcissistic relationship and, when necessary, summoning the inner strength to break free from it.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
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.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Many people searching under “narcissism” are trying to understand painful relational patterns in themselves or in someone close to them. You may notice tendencies toward emotional distance, self‑protection, or a need to appear a certain way, and worry that this means something fixed about who you are. You may also be living with the impact of a parent or partner whose self‑involvement left little room for your needs.
I understand these patterns less as labels and more as deeply rooted strategies shaped by early relationships and shame. In our work, we focus less on simply reducing distress and more on changing your relationship with yourself and others. We look at what these defenses are protecting, how they affect your sense of self and connection (including the impact on people you care about), and what more grounded and flexible relating could look like for you now.
If you’re dealing with a narcissistic parent or partner, our work centers on your side of the dynamic: making sense of the pattern you’re in, supporting your nervous system, and exploring what boundaries and choices feel most protective and self‑respecting for you. We focus on supporting you in your growth and healing, not on diagnosing partners or family members.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder is often misunderstood and frequently misused as an insult on social media. In reality, most people show traits of narcissism at times, but true NPD is less common and far more complex. My work focuses on helping clients (and those impacted by them) understand the protective roots of narcissism—often tied to shame, neglect, or unmet needs for validation. Using IFS, psychodynamic, interpersonal, and mindfulness approaches, I support authentic self-awareness, accountability, and healthier relationships. My diagnostic expertise helps clarify the difference between narcissistic traits and full NPD.
