Workshop: 9 November 2019
Working with Narcissism
Kerrie Kirkwood will be providing an opportunity for clinicians to explore working with narcissism and the defences that can manifest when working clinically with these patients. She will discuss themes such as: the formation of narcissism, management of the pressures to collude with the narcissistic patient and the risk of the therapist's vicarious use of these patients.
