Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Navigating Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), whether personally or within a relationship, can involve challenges with self-esteem, emotional regulation, relationships, communication, and interpersonal boundaries. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment to help clients better understand relationship patterns, emotional responses, and behaviors that may be creating difficulties in their lives. Counseling focuses on developing greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, empathy, healthier communication, accountability, and more stable and respectful relationships.
For individuals seeking personal growth, therapy can provide an opportunity to explore underlying beliefs, strengthen a healthier sense of self, develop more constructive ways of responding to criticism or conflict, and build skills for navigating relationships. For those affected by narcissistic behaviors in a relationship, counseling can focus on recognizing unhealthy patterns, establishing appropriate boundaries, strengthening self-worth, and developing healthy coping strategies.
For clients who desire it, Christian faith can be incorporated into counseling through prayer, Scripture, spiritual reflection, and exploration of values such as humility, compassion, forgiveness, personal responsibility, and healthy relationships. Change begins with self-awareness and a willingness to grow. With compassionate support and practical tools, healthier patterns and meaningful relationships are possible.

Narcissism
James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
I have worked with many profoundly narcissistic people over the years, so I have a depth of understanding of the issues and dynamics involved. Although such persons tend to evoke suspicion and contempt (along with fascination and idealization) I can also see them sympathetically in terms of the profound liabilities of their way of being. Real love rarely penetrates them, and when it does it quickly flies away. Patient, careful, reliable therapeutic work can facilitate the development of alternative behavioral/emotional patterns that are more satisfying (and less punishing for others).

Jonah Taylor
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My work with narcissistic traits focuses on two paths: helping motivated individuals understand their defensive patterns and their impact, and providing crucial support for partners and family members. For loved ones, therapy is a space to heal from narcissistic abuse, set firm boundaries, and reclaim your sense of self.

Dr. Rosy Saenz-Sierzega
Psychologist, PhD, MA, NBCC
Relationships involving narcissistic traits or Narcissistic Personality Disorder can be particularly confusing and emotionally draining. I help clients understand the patterns they are experiencing, recognize unhealthy relationship dynamics, establish appropriate boundaries, and make decisions based on what is actually happening rather than getting caught in cycles of guilt, manipulation, or self-doubt.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I possess a wealth of expertise in effectively addressing the complex issue of narcissistic abuse. I have created and published extensive resources on this topic, including audios, videos, eBooks, and The Narcissistic Abuse Survival Tool Kit. These resources have helped thousands of individuals on their journey towards healing from the trauma of narcissistic abuse. This form of abuse often leaves individuals feeling bewildered, isolated, and trapped in a perpetual cycle of walking on eggshells. My approach is rooted in fostering a deep understanding of the covert tactics employed by narcissists, such as gaslighting, manipulation, projection, and DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender). I guide clients in learning to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, a crucial step towards reclaiming their lives. Furthermore, I incorporate EMDR therapy to support individuals in coping with the effects of a narcissistic relationship and, when necessary, summoning the inner strength to break free from it.
