Whether the narcissist in your life is a boss, coworker, relative, or romantic partner, the exercises and advice in Unmasking Narcissism will help you set healthy boundaries and make sense of this complex and often painful issue.

In this groundbreaking guide from clinical psychologist Mark Ettensohn, PsyD., you will gain insight into narcissistic behaviors, symptoms, and relationship dynamics. Dr. Ettensohn provides exercises designed to help you clarify your own values and goals for the relationship, whether that means immediate separation or long-term relationship management. Anyone whose life has been touched by narcissism will find this book helpful – whether you are coming to terms with a loved one’s diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality disorder (NPD), or working to move forward after leaving a narcissistic relationship.

Unmasking Narcissism provides strategies and coping styles that will guide you toward a deeper understanding of both the narcissist and yourself, with:

  • Easy-to-read sections aligned with the DSM-5 criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
  • Explanations of both grandiose (overt) and vulnerable (covert) narcissism.
  • Healing tools and techniques, including how to defuse arguments instead of fuel them, mindfulness meditation, and exploring vulnerability.
  • Real-world stories of people coping with narcissists.

Throughout, Unmasking Narcissism offers a fully realized, yet compassionate portrait of narcissism that will help you on your path to healing without compromising your own mental health and wellness.

    I really enjoyed this book. It was easy to read and offered great insight in to the narcissists in my life. I appreciate that the goal was to help live with your narcissist and not just telling you to run. Their are a lot of narcissistic people in the world that we deal with every day. I especially wanted to understand why they act the way they do and learn how to navigate life with them still in mine. I really appreciate the lessons I learned from this book ANF the perspective it gave me. Highly recommend!

    This book is incredible. Because this guy, for whatever reason, is one of the few people who takes a genuinely compassionate view on this topic, it's allowed for a profound and truly modern view into human nature. This topic is so misunderstood, the surrounding conversation of it is so corrupted, that reading this feels like a breath of fresh air. When discussing this with others post read/listen, the emotional space allowed to them and myself through the understanding that "patterns arent always personality disorders but you still have to acknowledge and deal with them because narcissism etc comes in many forms" has been enough to instantly collapse toxic dynamics, walled off emotions, and unspoken grudges with almost everyone I've talked with. *Every* *Single* *Person* has these patterns or has had to deal with them. You'd think lending someone, let's say who potentially suffers from these issues, this book would be like handing them an "emotional-grenade" but oh no...it's the opposite. I'm seriously considering selling these, or even giving them out at the heady new age music festivals I work sound at.

    I found this book interesting and helpful to learn more about the human who suffers from NPD. I have read many other books on narcissism that shared the common theme of "just leave the narcissist". Although that advice is logical I wanted to learn more about what makes the NPD tick. This book did a good job of explaining that.

    I searched through many books on narcissism before I found this. A lot of books present a very biased opinion. This book is neutral and informative. It’s easy to read and provides tools to help you understand narcissism and protect your peace when dealing with narcissists, without condemning the narcissist. Very empathetic and insightful

    Easy to understand book and unlike some of the other reviews that bashed the author for taking some sympathy on a narcissist, I'm encouraged that he leans toward trying to make a relationship with a narcissist work. Obviously, if the relationship is mentally or physically abusive he says get out. But, not all narcissists are full blown and it's been refreshing to see that some people just have narcissistic tendencies and can be dealt with. I myself am learning from this book some skills to cope with a person who I love who just has some tendencies and who truly is a loving person. We all have our faults and I have learned from this book to not make excuses for that person but to know that they are most likely not aware they have these tendencies. I'm not a pushover person and I expect to work hard on relationships that are important to me and this is no exception.
