What is Narcissism? How do we cultivate and nurture healthy self-esteem? – with Dr. Andrew B. Klafter

March 23, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

In the last decade, “Narcissism” has transformed from an esoteric mental health topic which was limited to professional mental health and academic psychological literatures to a well-known term that is discussed and debated by the lay public. In this presentation, Dr Klafter will comprehensively review Narcissism and Narcissistic Personality problems. He will dispel certain myths and misconceptions about Narcissism which are advanced in the popular media. Dr. Klafter will describe a continuum of people struggling from self-esteem problems, ranging from psychologically healthy individuals to the most fragile people in our society, and will describe how our ability to nurture and regulate our self-esteem affects us in relationships, at work, and in our entire society.
