The Truth About Narcissism: Dr. Jaime Zuckerman on Abuse, Gaslighting & Healing (The Velvet)
Manage episode 502728610 series 2806474
Licensed clinical psychologist and relationship coach Dr. Jaime Zuckerman (Dr. Z) unpacks today’s cultural obsession with narcissism and explains why the term has become one of the most overused buzzwords of modern psychology. She clarifies the difference between narcissistic traits and Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), offering insight into the clinical reality behind the label.
The episode explores the insidious nature of narcissistic abuse—how confusion, gaslighting, and trauma bonding can leave victims doubting themselves long after the relationship ends. Dr. Z discusses who may be more susceptible to these dynamics, the connection between narcissism and addiction, and the psychological mechanisms that keep people stuck in toxic relationships.
Practical strategies for recovery and healing are also addressed, including reclaiming boundaries, rebuilding self-trust, and taking back personal power. This conversation provides clarity for anyone seeking to understand narcissism more deeply and insight for those navigating the lasting impact of narcissistic abuse.
