Narcissism
Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I work with individuals who experience patterns that may include narcissistic traits, such as difficulties in relationships, emotional reactivity, or challenges with empathy and connection. Together, we focus on building insight, increasing emotional awareness, and understanding the underlying experiences that contribute to these patterns. My approach is supportive and nonjudgmental, while also structured and growth-oriented, helping you develop greater emotional regulation and more effective ways of relating to others. The goal is to strengthen self-understanding, improve interpersonal functioning, and support healthier, more fulfilling relationships. If you’re looking to better understand yourself and your relationships, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.

Narcissism
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
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.

Narcissism
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.
