Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Whether you're in a relationship with someone who has narcissistic traits or you're working to understand your own patterns, this is nuanced and often painful territory. At Simple Empathy I bring a clear-eyed, direct approach — no jargon, no demonizing, no oversimplification. If you're a survivor of narcissistic abuse, we'll rebuild your reality, your self-trust and your sense of worth. If you're someone working to understand your own narcissistic defenses, I'll meet you there too — with honesty and without judgment. Real change requires real honesty, and that's exactly what this work demands.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

Jarrece Patrick
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
Navigating relationships with someone who has Narcissistic Personality Disorder, or healing from its impact, can be confusing, painful, and exhausting. I work with clients to understand these dynamics, set healthy boundaries, and develop strategies for emotional safety and self-empowerment. Using an empathetic, evidence-informed approach, I help clients rebuild confidence, process their experiences, and regain control over their lives, fostering resilience and personal growth.
