Frequently Asked Questions
What is narcissism, and how does it differ from self-confidence?

Can narcissism be treated or managed?
Yes. Through therapy, individuals can gain insights into their behaviors, develop empathy, and cultivate healthier interpersonal skills.
How long does a typical narcissism treatment session last?
A standard session lasts about 50 minutes. However, the frequency and duration can be adjusted based on individual needs and the therapist’s recommendations.
Is narcissism a result of upbringing or genetics?
Narcissism, like many personality traits, can be influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and social factors. Therapy can help unpack these influences and address the behaviors.
How can I tell if I or someone I know might benefit from narcissism treatment?
If narcissistic tendencies are affecting personal relationships, self-worth, or overall well-being, it might be beneficial to seek therapy. A consultation with a therapist can provide clarity.
