Healing Narcissistic Abuse for Empaths

For decades, I have worked with clients whose identity, boundaries, and nervous systems were progressively destabilized inside narcissistic relationships.

I understand how gaslighting, intermittent reinforcement, emotional invalidation, and chronic self-doubt rewire your sense of reality and self-trust.

This work is not just about “moving on.” It is about repairing the psychological and relational damage that remains—often long after the relationship ends.

Healing narcissistic abuse requires targeted trauma work, not insight alone.

We focus on interrupting people-pleasing reflexes, restoring internal authority, rebuilding emotional safety, and retraining a nervous system conditioned to threat, vigilance, and self-silencing.

The goal is practical and measurable: You stop adapting to other people at your own expense—and begin responding from choice instead of fear.

 

My work is grounded in trauma science, attachment injury, and clinical psychology, with a specific focus on empathic individuals. Your sensitivity, depth, and relational capacity were never deficits—they were exploited.

Treatment is designed to reverse trauma-based conditioning, restore emotional regulation, and rebuild a stable sense of self so intimacy, discernment, and self-protection can coexist.
