Description
Instead of the grandiosity and entitlement typically seen with overt narcissists, their covert counterparts may appear insecure and self-effacing. If overlooked, therapeutic progress can be very slow or may even stall altogether as the client remains stuck in a victim mentality.
Join Wendy Behary, MSW, LCSW, author of the international bestselling book, Disarming the Narcissist: Surviving and Thriving with the Self-Absorbed, as she teaches you skills to assess and address issues of subjugation and self-sacrifice and facilitate a process for healing the underlying insecurities of the covert narcissist.
