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).

Narcissism
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.

Dr. Alishia Kalos
Psychologist, PsyD, CST
Dr. Kalos works with individuals experiencing narcissistic patterns or a diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, as well as individuals navigating difficult relationships characterized by these patterns.

Tools from a Schema Therapy perspective may be particularly beneficial. When working with couples, she also considers the relational patterns that contribute to ongoing difficulties.

Narcissism
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is one of the most stigmatized and misunderstood diagnoses in mental health. It’s often reduced to labels like “self-centered” or “manipulative,” without acknowledging the deeper patterns underneath—patterns that are often shaped by early experiences, attachment wounds, and the need to protect a fragile sense of self. For some, being given this diagnosis can feel confusing or even confronting. For others, it may not fully capture the complexity of what they’re experiencing. At Nour Counseling, we approach this work with nuance, not judgment.
We don’t rely on surface-level labels—we work with you to understand the underlying patterns: how you relate to yourself, how you navigate relationships, how you manage vulnerability, and what happens when your sense of self feels threatened. From there, we actively support you in building greater self-awareness, emotional range, and more stable, reciprocal ways of connecting with others. This includes working through defensiveness, exploring underlying insecurities, and developing tools for communication and regulation that feel more grounded and sustainable. We also consider the cultural and relational context that shaped these patterns, so you’re not reduced to a diagnosis. This is thoughtful, collaborative work focused on helping you move toward relationships—and a sense of self—that feel more stable, connected, and real.
