narcissist abuse therapy toronto

Narcissistic abuse therapy is a type of psychological counselling or therapy aimed at helping individuals who have experienced emotional, psychological, or other forms of abuse from someone with narcissistic traits or a narcissistic personality disorder.

Narcissistic abuse can have profound and lasting effects on a person's mental and emotional well-being.

Narcissistic abuse therapy in the context of relationships focuses on helping individuals who have been in relationships with narcissistic partners or individuals with narcissistic traits.

These relationships can be emotionally and psychologically damaging, often leading to trauma and a range of negative effects on the survivor's mental health and well-being.



If you have not been diagnosed by a mental health professional for narcissism, but feel like you were in a relationship that made you second guess yourself, feel insecure, and hurt your confidence, a coach might be able to help.
