Narcissism
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for individuals struggling with personality-related challenges, including narcissistic traits, emotional dysregulation, relational conflict patterns, and other long-standing personality and attachment difficulties. These concerns often impact relationships, self-awareness, communication, emotional regulation, and overall functioning, and can create repeated cycles of conflict, misunderstanding, or disconnection in personal and family relationships.
Brad takes a holistic, trauma-focused approach to treatment, recognizing that long-standing personality patterns often develop in response to early attachment wounds, unresolved trauma, emotional neglect, or adverse childhood experiences. Therapy focuses on increasing insight, emotional awareness, and the ability to recognize and shift deeply ingrained relational and behavioral patterns over time.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support meaningful psychological and emotional change. Treatment may involve exploring past experiences, attachment dynamics, and core beliefs that influence current patterns in relationships and self-perception.
Personality-related challenges are typically persistent and deeply rooted, meaning that meaningful change often requires consistent therapeutic work focused on both present-day behaviors and underlying emotional experiences. Rather than surface-level advice, therapy emphasizes deeper understanding, emotional processing, and the development of healthier relational patterns.
Brad also works with individuals, couples, and families when appropriate to support improved communication, clearer boundaries, and more stable relational dynamics. This collaborative work can help reduce conflict, improve understanding between parties, and support healthier interaction patterns over time.
The goal of therapy is not to label or define a person, but to support growth, self-awareness, and the ability to build healthier, more stable, and more fulfilling relationships. Change is possible with the right support and commitment to the therapeutic process.

Narcissism
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is one of the most stigmatized and misunderstood diagnoses in mental health. It’s often reduced to labels like “self-centered” or “manipulative,” without acknowledging the deeper patterns underneath—patterns that are often shaped by early experiences, attachment wounds, and the need to protect a fragile sense of self. For some, being given this diagnosis can feel confusing or even confronting. For others, it may not fully capture the complexity of what they’re experiencing. At Nour Counseling, we approach this work with nuance, not judgment.
We don’t rely on surface-level labels—we work with you to understand the underlying patterns: how you relate to yourself, how you navigate relationships, how you manage vulnerability, and what happens when your sense of self feels threatened. From there, we actively support you in building greater self-awareness, emotional range, and more stable, reciprocal ways of connecting with others. This includes working through defensiveness, exploring underlying insecurities, and developing tools for communication and regulation that feel more grounded and sustainable. We also consider the cultural and relational context that shaped these patterns, so you’re not reduced to a diagnosis. This is thoughtful, collaborative work focused on helping you move toward relationships—and a sense of self—that feel more stable, connected, and real.
