Learn to identify the types of narcissism, parenting styles of narcissists, behaviors of the victims, gaslighting and trauma bonds, survival skills to teach clients and how to help them regain their sense of worth and self. This course is designed to help therapists understand narcissism vs NPD and how to help clients survive the emotional abuse. As therapists, it is our job to remain neutral, but also keep our clients safe. Clients may have left the situation they were in, they might not be ready to leave, they might be related to the individual, or work with the individual. Regardless of their situation, this course will provide you with the tools, techniques, interventions, and information to help the client(s) survive their situation.
