Live Webinar with Wendy Behary: Schema Therapy for Narcissism

Schema Therapy for Narcissism: The Art of Empathic Confrontation 

Live Webinar Presented by Wendy Behary, LCSW

Narcissistic clients are notoriously difficult.  The complexities of these clients can arouse our curiosity, but treating them can arouse our sense of inadequacy.   This live webinar will help you establish a sturdier foothold for empathically holding narcissistic clients accountable and setting necessary limits. You will acquire a working understanding of schema therapy as applied to narcissism in order to help you understand your client’s life themes, as well as your own, and how these themes interact in therapy.  By gaining a firmer grasp on your own schemas and a better understanding of the narcissistic client’s makeup, you can overcome obstacles in treating narcissism and maintain the necessary leverage for healing.
