Can a Narcissist Ever Really Change? Part 2

This episode is Part 2 of my conversation on Dimming the Gaslight with hosts Mac and Phil, where we dive even deeper into the complexities of narcissism. We explore the motivations behind narcissistic behavior, the struggle with forgiveness, and how therapy can facilitate change. We also discuss the emotional push-pull in relationships with narcissists, the role of brain chemistry, and the tough decision of when to walk away. Understanding these dynamics is key to personal growth and healing.Dimming The Gaslight: Our Healing Journey From Narcissistic Abusehttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dimming-the-gaslight-our-healing-journey-from/id1602899691If you are interested in a consultation or seeking virtual therapy services, Dr. Mazzella is accepting new patients.
