How to treat people with narcissism, and even whether you can make meaningful progress, is one of the hottest and most misunderstood topics in the field today. It’s also part of a burgeoning conversation about the importance of providing effective treatment for the partners, family members, and even colleagues of narcissistic individuals, who are often experiencing significant clinical distress because of the dynamics and behaviours of these relationships.

How to sort through the myths and misunderstandings around narcissism from a clinical point of view
The current debates and most important new findings about narcissism and narcissistic abuse
The most effective ways to approach narcissism and narcissistic abuse
