You’re Not Crazy. You’re Not Too Sensitive. What you Experienced Was Real.
Therapy for Narcissistic Abuse
Does this sound familiar?
You grew up with a parent, or had a relationship with someone where:
You regularly felt dismissed and invalidated
You walked on eggshells for fear of upsetting them
You were told you were overreacting, too sensitive, or the problem
Your sense of reality was so different from theirs that you questioned whether your experience was real
Whatever you've experienced, you're starting to realize that the relationship wasn't healthy—and that it's affected how you see yourself and relate to others.
If you’ve been wounded by narcissistic behaviors, you may:
Doubt your own perceptions and memories because you’ve been invalidated so many times
Feel guilty for having feelings and needs,
Question whether your bar should be so high
Question whether you really deserve the love and attention you want
Struggle to make and enforce boundaries for fear of being hurt or abandoned
People please at the expense of your own well being
Rapid and Lasting Relief to Heal from
Narcissistic Abuse
EMDR and Brainspotting offer an accelerated way to heal that goes beyond talk therapy.
Talk therapy helps you understand what happened wasn't okay. You can recognize the manipulation and trace where your patterns came from. But understanding alone doesn't always quiet the hypervigilance, ease the triggers, or restore that gut-level trust in yourself. Your nervous system may still be stuck in survival mode even when your mind knows you're safe.
EMDR and Brainspotting heal beyond the thinking level-helping your nervous system catch up to what your brain already knows
When you heal narcissistic abuse trauma at its root with Brainspotting or EMDR, you don't have to keep managing triggers or convincing yourself you're not crazy—
Brainspotting and EMDR accelerate healing, moving you beyond being stuck, helping you heal deep patterns at a nervous system level, often giving you rapid and permanant relief.
This allows you to:
Feel safe in your body
Find your truth
Trust your perceptions and intuition
Say no and set boundaries without guilt or fear of being abandoned
Keep your bar up for how you are treated
Feel worthy of love and respect
Get close to those who are worthy of your time and attention
Take the first step toward feeling safe and trusting yourself again.
