Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Wayne Ayers
Psychologist, PhD
Often narcissists are seen as the modern day psychopaths. But narcissists are a natural reaction to our societies emphasis on surface sucess, attainment and materialism. The narcissist suffers from an abundance of outer success and an impoverishment of inner success. We will work to unite these two sides of their personality.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
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.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Narcissism is so deeply misunderstood in our culture. Beneath what may appear as grandiosity, detachment, or defensiveness, there is often a more vulnerable person dealing with shame, emptiness, or fear of being exposed as inadequate. Protecting ourselves comes in many forms.
In the type of therapy I practice, we approach these dynamics with curiosity rather than judgment. Psychoanalytic therapy offers a space to understand how early experiences may have led to the need for self-protection through idealization, perfectionism, or control. We work to strengthen the parts of you that feel fragile or hidden, so you can begin to feel more secure, connected, and whole, not through performance or validation, but through a deeper sense of self that feels authentic and stable.
