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.

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.
