Description
Narcissism can be hard to identify in relationships, especially for the layperson who loves them, so how can we, as clinicians, help our clients stuck in these cycles? Often, people who are in these types of relationships will seek treatment because they have been convinced that they are the troubled component of the situation and are seeking to change themselves when that might not be the problem. In this training, we will discuss the red flags of narcissism and gaslighting behaviors in relationships so that we can provide empathetic guidance on the next steps to help clients care for themselves and their mental health.
Upon completion of this training participants will be able to:
- Recognize signs and symptoms of narcissism
- Identify how narcissism and gaslighting behaviors show up in relationships.
- Provide therapeutic interventions for survivors of narcissistic abuse
Social workers completing this course receive 3 Clinical asynchronous continuing education credits.
For other board approvals, this course qualifies for 3 hours of Clinical and General Skill Building continuing education training.
