Healing From Narcissistic Abuse: Tools, Strategies, and a Clinical Framework for Therapists

Jun. 21, 2025

10:00 AM - 4:45 PM (EST)

Virtual Event
6 CE Credits
Survivors of narcissistic abuse need a therapist who truly understands their experience. This intensive training equips clinicians with a deep understanding of the complex dynamics of narcissistic abuse and provides effective strategies, tools, and approaches to support clients on their healing journey.
Narcissistic abuse is an insidious form of emotional abuse that can lead to chronic, complex PTSD in survivors. To support these clients effectively, clinicians must understand the complex dynamics of the narcissistic relationship, including cycles of abuse, manipulation and coercive behavior such as gaslighting, and the long-term wounds that scar survivors’ sense of self. This training will not only introduce participants to the above concepts, but will also explore how clinicians can utilize specific therapeutic models to support healing.

This live interactive webinar is designed for behavioral health professionals, including:

Counselors

Social Workers

Psychotherapists

Marriage & Family Therapists

Psychologists

Substance Use Disorders Counselors

Case Managers

Physicians

Other Mental Health Professionals
