Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Molly Heffernan
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
The impacts of narcissism in relationships can be profound and often detrimental. Narcissistic individuals typically exhibit a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, a lack of empathy, and a constant need for admiration. In relationships, this can lead to a one-sided dynamic where the narcissist dominates conversations, seeks constant validation, and undermines the well-being of their partner. Communication breakdowns, emotional manipulation, and a sense of being devalued are common consequences. The partner of a narcissist may experience a range of negative emotions, including frustration, loneliness, and diminished self-esteem. The relationship often becomes imbalanced, with the narcissist prioritizing their own needs and desires at the expense of the other person. Addressing and navigating the challenges posed by narcissism in relationships may require professional intervention, as therapy can provide support for both individuals involved, fostering healthier communication patterns and promoting a more equitable and fulfilling connection.

Nakasha Ogbonna
Registered Social Worker, RSW
I have years of experience supporting those living with the effects of narcissistic abuse whether from a significant other, family members, or boss/ coworker. I offer a warm and nonjudgmental approach that will allow you the emotional safety to make sense of your experience, explore the mix of emotions and sometimes seemingly opposing values, shattered sense of confidence, self efficacy, and distrust of self in decision making that survivors of narcissistic abuse are often left with. I can also support those living with narcissistic personality disorder with managing their symptoms, navigate interpersonal interactions with greater authenticity, and improve the quality of their relationships with others.

Tracey Nguyen
Counsellor/Therapist, RN, MN
NPD can be challenging to live with but not impossible to heal. It’s key to address the human root causes of this personality behaviour patterns. It comes down to deep unmet needs due to emotional neglect and certain parenting styles that enable a child to remain stunted in their earlier developmental years. Once we heal the unmet needs, emotional pain, the addictions, manage expectations, assess fantasy vs reality, take responsibility for our lives, our emotions and give up our intense self absorption, we can begin to look outside of ourselves and connect with the world. It doesn’t have to be so lonely, we can let go of control, expectation and seek salvation for our soul. Healing NPD is possible, with great opportunity for emotional maturity, soul and spiritual growth. Book a free consultation with me to find out how I can help you.
