Description

It’s essential that clinicians understand not just the phenomenon of narcissistic abuse/antagonistic relational stress (NA/ARS) but the fallout from it.  In this workshop, you’ll discover the core characteristics of NA/ARS relationships and take a deeper look at the unique dynamics that appear in familial, romantic, occupational, and social relationships. You’ll explore these relational patterns using case examples and see the true impact they have on real-life clients. In the workshop, you’ll also discover how to: 

  • Spot the signs of NA/ARS relationships and identify the fallout of these dynamics in your clients 
  • Help your clients recognize how their subjective experiences relate to the patterns occurring in their relationship 

  • Differentiate between NA/ARS and other mental health concerns such as PTSD, anxiety disorders, and other mental health issues. 

  • Develop a treatment plan that includes a framework for guiding your clients from awareness of their experiences to readiness for change
