Marriage and Family Therapist, LCSW, CADC. CMFT
Navigating the aftermath of narcissistic abuse in relationships can be an incredibly challenging and isolating experience. As a therapist specializing in this area, I provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to unpack their experiences, recognize the patterns of manipulation and control, and begin the journey to healing.
Clients often find themselves grappling with feelings of confusion, inadequacy, and self-doubt as a result of their experiences. My approach focuses on helping you reclaim your voice, rebuild your self-esteem, and develop healthier relationship dynamics. Together, we will explore the impact of narcissistic behavior, validate your emotions, and work towards establishing boundaries that honor your well-being.
By incorporating evidence-based therapeutic techniques, we will empower you to cultivate resilience and a sense of autonomy, ultimately guiding you toward a path of recovery and self-discovery. You deserve to heal, thrive, and create fulfilling connections—let’s embark on this transformative journey together.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
There is unfortunately a great deal of misinformation about NPD in the media and online. It is also frequently misdiagnosed for other conditions. I have experience both assessing and treating NPD. In terms of assessment, I use reliable clinical instruments (i.e., those used in clinical trials) to establish/rule out this diagnosis. For therapy, I apply several forms of contemporary psychodynamic therapies shown to be helpful in treating personality disorders (i.e., Transference-Focused Psychotherapy, Supportive-Expressive Therapy, and Mentalization-Based Treatment). I have published professional works (i.e., articles and a book) on psychodynamic therapy as well. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.

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.
