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.

While those who show characteristics of Narcissistic Personality Disorder are some of the least likely to seek therapy, the negative impact that these characteristic patterns can have on relationships or work life can lead some to desire targeted and lasting change in how they relate to other people. With years of experience working with personality issues, I can help you better understand which patterns are ineffective and how to create more effective patterns in your life.

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.

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.
