Summary:

This course explores the overlap between anxiety and narcissistic tendencies, particularly in individuals who exhibit heightened self-consciousness, fear of judgment, and a belief that their actions have disproportionate consequences on others or the world. The training will cover theoretical perspectives, clinical manifestations, assessment strategies, and evidence-based interventions.

Objectives:

By the end of this workshop:

  1. Therapists will define common anxiety traits of self-focus and differentiate the common trait from pathological narcissism by defining and distinguishing narcissistic traits, narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), and anxiety symptoms.

  2. Therapists will assess how self-consciousness, perfectionism, overthinking, and social anxiety can resemble narcissistic tendencies, exploring cognitive distortions and early attachment influences.

  3. Therapists will identify key clinical presentations, and apply CBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic techniques to help clients challenge distorted self-focus, reduce personalization, and develop healthier self-esteem.

This course has been approved for 3 Core CE Hours through LPCGA.
