Narcissism
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Treatment for those who are in relationships with people who have narcissistic personality disorder. Therapy empowers survivors of trauma to recognize and challenge negative self-perceptions, anxiety, and self-doubt, which are all common outcomes of narcissistic abuse. Narcissistic abuse leaves a particular kind of damage — one that is difficult to explain to people who have not experienced it. If you have spent time in a relationship with a narcissistic partner, parent, or colleague, you may find yourself questioning your own reality, struggling with self-worth, or carrying anxiety and confusion that feels impossible to shake. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I specialize in narcissistic abuse recovery, coercive control, emotional manipulation, and trauma bonding — helping adults reclaim their sense of self and rebuild genuine confidence. Telehealth therapy for narcissistic abuse available across 40+ states.

Counseling for Narcissism offers specialized care for individuals grappling with its complexities, a condition characterized by patterns of grandiosity, a need for admiration, and a lack of empathy for others. NPD counseling aims to address the deep-seated emotional and psychological issues that underpin these behaviors, fostering healthier interpersonal relationships and a more constructive self-image. Recognizing the challenges in treating NPD, our approach is grounded in compassion, understanding, and a commitment to facilitating change.
Tailored Counseling Approach for NPD
* Empathetic and Nonjudgmental Environment: We prioritize creating a secure therapeutic space where individuals feel safe to explore their feelings, behaviors, and the roots of their narcissistic tendencies without judgment.
* Insight-Oriented Counseling: We guide clients toward developing insight into their own behaviors and the impacts on themselves and others, promoting the acknowledgement of and accountability for their actions.
* Emotion Regulation: Counseling focuses on enhancing emotional regulation skills to manage the vulnerabilities and sensitivities often underlying narcissistic behaviors.
* Interpersonal Effectiveness: We work to improve interpersonal skills, fostering empathy, and enhancing the capacity for meaningful and reciprocal relationships.
* Self-Esteem Building: A key component of counseling is addressing underlying issues of self-esteem and validation, helping clients build a healthier and more stable sense of self-worth that is not dependent on external validation.
Goals of Counseling:
Our NPD counseling services strive to:
* Enhance Self-Insight: Facilitate a deeper understanding of oneself, fostering acknowledgment of narcissistic patterns and their effects.

* Foster Healthier Relationships: Support the building of healthier and more mutually satisfying relationships.
* Promote Emotional Growth: Encourage emotional resilience and flexibility, moving away from fragile self-esteem and towards a more grounded self-concept.
* Support Behavioral Change: Guide individuals in recognizing harmful behaviors and implementing strategies for change, aiming for more adaptive and less harmful interpersonal interactions.
