Ep 126: Can Narcissists Change? What Family Court and Survivors Need to Know

  • Summary

  • We'd love your feedback! What resonated for you in this episode? What do you want more of?

    What does the family court system and other systems need to know about the realistic time it will take someone with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) or those who are high on the continuum of narcissism to actually change?

    That is if they are willing to change.

    And if you are struggling to leave, hoping that your partner will make the changes they have promised, what do you need to know?

    In this episode I critique and summarize an article that hooked me in several years ago called
    “10 Stages in the Treatment of Narcissistic Disorders: Narcissists can slowly change, with appropriate therapy and a lot of effort.”

    This article suggests 10 stages for the clinical “curing” of NPD. I share the takeaways for those who come into contact with someone with NPD or someone high on the continuum of narcissism including how the family court system can learn from and make changes to their assumptions based in this article. I also discuss what is missing from the article and ideas for future research.
