Therapy for Narcissistic Abuse
What is Narcissistic Abuse?
narcissistic abuse (noun)
Narcissistic abuse is a pattern of emotional, psychological, or verbal mistreatment stemming from someone’s excessive self-focus, lack of empathy, and need for control. It often looks like manipulation, gaslighting, constant criticism, or withholding affection—all tactics used to maintain power and diminish another’s sense of self-worth. Although there may be moments of charm or kindness, these are typically interspersed with behaviors that leave the targeted person feeling confused, unmoored, or deeply wounded. Over time, this kind of abuse erodes trust, damages boundaries, and creates ongoing emotional and relational trauma.

How Therapy Helps You Reclaim Your Identity
After narcissistic abuse, it’s common to feel disconnected from who you are. Therapy offers a safe and supportive space to untangle the confusion, rebuild your confidence, and rediscover your voice.

Through this process, you can begin to reclaim your identity and step into a life that feels truly your own.
THERAPY FOR NARCISSISTIC ABUSE
Renee’s Approach
In sessions with Renee Lederman, you can expect a trauma-informed approach designed to honor your healing after narcissistic abuse. Using evidence-based modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), IFS (Internal Family Systems), and somatic therapy, Renee helps you process painful experiences, reconnect with your inner strengths, and restore a sense of safety in your body and mind. Together, you’ll gently uncover and challenge the internalized beliefs, family narratives, and survival strategies that may no longer serve you. This process allows you to reduce anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm, while cultivating clarity, self-trust, and resilience. Over time, therapy empowers you to reclaim your identity, strengthen your boundaries, and embrace life with greater peace, meaning, and confidence.
Q&A: About Narcissistic Abuse
How do I know if I was in a narcissistic relationship?
It can sometimes be difficult to recognize, because narcissistic abuse often unfolds gradually. Common signs include feeling like you can never do enough, experiencing gaslighting that makes you doubt your memory or judgment, and living with constant criticism, control, or emotional manipulation. If you often felt anxious, invisible, or like you lost pieces of yourself in the relationship, you may have experienced narcissistic abuse.
Can I recover from narcissistic abuse?
Yes—healing is absolutely possible. While the impact of narcissistic abuse can be profound, many people go on to live full, connected, and meaningful lives. Recovery involves reclaiming your identity, strengthening your boundaries, and learning to trust yourself again. With the support of trauma-informed therapy at Relational Healing, you don’t have to navigate this process alone.
What does therapy for narcissistic abuse involve?
At Relational Healing, therapy for narcissistic abuse is always trauma-informed and paced at what feels safe for you. Your therapist may integrate approaches such as EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapy to help you process painful memories, reconnect with your authentic self, and heal both emotionally and physically. Together, you’ll learn to identify and challenge the beliefs that kept you stuck, rebuild self-trust, and create healthier patterns in your relationships.
How long does it take to heal from narcissistic abuse?
There’s no set timeline—healing looks different for everyone. Factors such as the length of the relationship, the severity of the abuse, and the support you have now all play a role. What’s most important is that healing unfolds at your own pace. At Relational Healing, we walk alongside you as you move through this journey, ensuring that every step honors your safety, resilience, and growth.
