Despite the growing cultural and empirical interest in narcissism
and narcissistic personality disorder, therapists often feel
confused and overwhelmed about how to help patients struggling with
these problems. “Mentalization” refers to the ability to read,
access, and reflect on mental states in oneself and other people.
Research shows that people with narcissism can suffer from extreme
difficulties mentalizing themselves and others, leading to
instability in their mood, interpersonal relationships, and sense
of self. Mentalization-based Treatment for Pathological Narcissism:
A Handbook provides much needed guidance about how to effectively
help patients suffering from narcissistic vulnerabilities.
Mentalization-based treatment, or MBT, is an evidence-based therapy
for patients with personality disorders, helping patients to
reflect on mental states in themselves and others, resulting in
significant improvements in everyday functioning. This book reviews
the deficits in mentalizing associated with pathological
narcissism, describes how to give the diagnosis of narcissism to
patients, outlines how to structure therapy sessions, and offers
step-by-step techniques about “what to do and say” when sitting
with these patients. Utilizing vibrant case examples and verbatim
scripts from actual psychotherapies, the authors explain how to
address the most common clinical challenges associated with
narcissism: disconnection from emotions; impairments in empathy;
rigid thinking; monologues and intellectualization; unstable
self-esteem; and tendencies to blame other people for disruptions
in their relationships.
