Can a Narcissistic Personality Be Successfully Treated?

Yes, those with NPD can change positively with treatment. It’s important to understand that NPD is a mental health condition that can be managed (not cured).

Treatments for NPD can include talk therapy, medication, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

“At the completion of the therapies after 2.5 to 5 years, all patients had improved, no longer met DIN or DSM-5 criteria for NPD, and showed better psychosocial functioning.”

What Does NPD Treatment Address?

Our narcissistic personality disorder therapy focuses on core elements of NPD, including:

Perfectionism

Low-self esteem

Unresolved trauma

Treating You, Not Your NPD Diagnosis

Those who have NPD can be resistant to treatment because they truly believe they don’t have a problem or they don’t want the stigmatizing label.

Our narcissistic personality disorder psychiatrist creates a custom therapy plan that focuses on helping you feel safe and getting to the root of the issues so you can be successful in your relationships.

Additionally, NPD can often co-occur with other mental health conditions, which can also be treated, such as:

Bipolar
Mood disorders
Borderline personality disorder (BPD)
Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD)

Anxiety
Depression
Substance abuse disorder
Body dysmorphia

Narcissistic Personality Disorder FAQs

Do I need an NPD diagnosis to start therapy?

No, you don’t technically need an official NPD diagnosis to start therapy. We can address the core causes of your symptoms without it. However, an official diagnosis can help us better tailor your treatment plan.

What’s the difference between NPD and ADHD?

While both conditions share similar traits, such as difficulty regulating emotions, ADHD is due to neurobiological factors, while NPD can be due to a need for validation.

Can NPD treatment teach me how to apologize and rebuild relationships with adult children?

Yes, if you are willing to learn, NPD treatment can teach you how to apologize and build relationships with adult children. You can learn how to regulate your feelings, validate theirs, and accept accountability for your actions.

Can a Miami therapist help with family estrangement?

Yes, a Miami therapist can help with family estrangement. They can act as a neutral, third-party that mediates between family members. They can help each participant process their feelings and grow from their mistakes.

How is NPD diagnosed—what assessments do you use?

To be diagnosed with NPD, you must have at least five of the nine traits listed under Narcissistic Personality Disorder in the DSM-5. This is determined through self-assessment or by an interview with a professional. Occasionally, loved ones are also interviewed for extra perspective.

Can narcissistic personality disorder treatment help with empathy, accountability, and repairing trust?

Yes, narcissistic treatment can help with empathy, accountability, and repairing trust—as long as the participant is motivated to change.

What does realistic progress look like with NPD treatment?

Realistic progress in NPD treatment can look like developing a stronger sense of self, so the urge to use maladaptive behaviors, such as manipulation, is not as strong. Progress can also be when the patient's perspective starts to better align with those around them, or they can better regulate their emotions.

Can narcissistic personality disorder be prevented?

No, narcissistic personality disorder cannot be prevented. However, you can address symptoms early in yourself or in loved ones.

How do I interact with a loved one who may have narcissistic personality disorder?

The best way to interact with a loved one who may have narcissistic personality disorder is to be caring but still have firm boundaries with them. You can encourage them to receive help, but they may not take it.

You cannot change them. They must want to change.

Is there medication for NPD?

No, there is no specific medication for NPD. However, the use of antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications is common and helpful in treating co-occurring disorders.
