Break Cycles of Self-Protective Behavior and Build Healthier, More Fulfilling Relationships

Living with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) isn’t about ego or arrogance — it’s often about deep emotional pain, fear of failure, and a fragile sense of self-worth. If your relationships feel strained, if you struggle with criticism or empathy, or if you’re exhausted from constantly trying to prove your value — you may be living with patterns rooted in narcissism.

At First Light Recovery, we offer residential treatment for adults with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, using compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help clients gain insight, develop emotional depth, and rebuild meaningful relationships.

Understanding Narcissistic Personality Disorder

NPD is a misunderstood condition often defined by inflated self-importance, a need for admiration, and lack of empathy — but under the surface, it frequently involves vulnerability, shame, and difficulty connecting authentically with others.
People with NPD often appear confident — but may feel deeply insecure, defensive, or misunderstood.
