Common questions

Is narcissistic abuse coaching the same as therapy?

There's significant overlap for this specific issue. For severe trauma from narcissistic abuse, therapy is the primary support. Coaching works well for people who are functional but working through the aftermath, rebuilding self-trust and building different relationship patterns.

What if the narcissistic person is a family member, not a partner?

Coaching applies equally. Family dynamics with narcissistic parents or siblings are just as damaging and just as workable in coaching.

How long does recovery take?

It varies significantly depending on the duration and intensity of the relationship and the level of support available. Most people feel meaningfully different within 3–6 months of focused work.
