I have worked within the mental health charity Mind for 3 years meeting a diverse group of people with wide ranging issues some of which include anxiety, depression, attachment trauma, narcissistic & domestic abuse, anger, struggles with sexuality/identity, bereavement & grief.
Finding the right therapist can make all the difference, often determining the success of therapy. This is why I offer a free 20-minute consultation to see if I am the right person for you. What you can expect from me is a warm, safe, compassionate space to explore your thoughts & feelings. I hold a flexible yet philosophical attitude, often curious about what it means to be oneself, to be human. As a humanistic & Integrative counsellor I draw upon a diverse range of approaches to suit your individual needs. I place special emphasis on cultivating a caring, honest, dynamic, respectful & very real relationship with you.

The therapy I offer is a safe, welcoming, reflective space in which you can feel at ease and can explore all aspects of your life. It’s a harbour from the choppy waters of daily life, a place to be heard and understood without judgement. It’s an opportunity to take stock, to make sense of how you got here, to boost your inner resources, to explore possibilities for the future and to implement positive change. I help to structure the process, to provide clarity about what might be impeding you and offer strategies for clearing the way ahead. In addition to talk therapy I also offer the opportunity to use the arts as part of our work.

My main goal is to help people to achieve a better quality of life by helping them to develop awareness and responsibility on their needs and desires. I consider therapy as a creative process between the client and the therapist that starts from a stuck point in life due to a symptom, a feeling of loss, a fear or a transition from one life stage into the next one. For me therapy is not about “to cure something wrong inside us” but an opportunity to transform our dysfunctional way to live.

Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Counsellors

What type of therapy is best for narcissistic personality disorder?

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is best treated with talk therapy, which could involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, schema therapy, gestalt therapy, or similar approaches. A therapist will help a patient uncover the feelings that may drive their behavior and discover how to engage with themselves and those around them with greater empathy and understanding, fewer demands, and less defensiveness, with the goal of developing a more authentic sense of self that enables healthier relationships.

How do therapists treat NPD?

By developing a strong therapeutic relationship, and continually focusing patients on relationships, community, and connection, a therapist, through talk therapy, may be able to help someone with NPD change. In sessions, a therapist will help an individual achieve relief from their current stressors, including the treatment of co-occurring conditions such as anxiety or depression. A therapist may also help an individual to recognize unhealthy coping mechanisms, learn new ways of interacting with others, and eventually become able to feel and display empathy.

Can a narcissist be cured with therapy?

Therapy can be effective. After a serious setback or great loss, someone with NPD may be forced to recognize that they are not immune to life’s challenges. That can spur feelings of melancholy and depression that lead them to seek professional help. Once an individual decides to seek help, they have already taken a step that the majority of those with NPD never will. Still, people with NPD often quit therapy as they naturally resist feeling vulnerable, being challenged, or admitting to flaws.

How can you get narcissistic personality disorder treatment for someone?

It is notoriously difficult to convince someone with NPD to seek help. With their feelings of superiority, they may be unlikely to recognize or acknowledge that they have a problem, or that their problem is narcissism. Sometimes, they are aware that they are arrogant and that others resent them but they don’t see it as a problem because they are convinced of their superiority. People with NPD have trouble maintaining relationships, but family members and others who do feel close to them, and whose presence they value, may be able to encourage them to seek therapy.
