With different presentations, risk levels, typologies and survivor experiences, a “one-size-fits-all” approach to managing the patterns of narcissistic abuse won’t meet your clients’ needs.
Dr. Ramani Durvasula is one of the most recognizable figures on the etiology and impact of narcissism on human relationships and mental health. A licensed clinical psychologist, Professor of Psychology at California State University, Los Angeles and Consulting Editor of the scientific journal Behavioral Medicine, her research on personality disorders has been funded by the National Institutes of Health.
In this session, she’ll show you how to understand the heterogeneity of narcissistic presentations, recognize differential impacts on clients, and employ psychoeducational approaches in narcissistic/antagonistic relational stress treatment so you can meet clients where they are.
