I know…

You know something isn’t right.

Whether it’s your partner, a family member, a friend, or a boss/colleague, something about the relationship has left you questioning yourself.

You’ve read the books, watched the videos, and listened to the podcasts about narcissists, narcissistic abuse, gaslighting, trauma bonding, coercive control, emotional abuse, psychological abuse, and emotional manipulation.

And yet…

You still replay the conversations.

You question your memory.

You wonder if you’re overreacting.

You feel anxious, emotionally exhausted, confused, depleted, and increasingly disconnected from yourself.

You quietly ask yourself,

“Is this really happening?”

Take a deep breath…

These are all common responses to narcissistic abuse, relational trauma, and prolonged emotional abuse. A consultation can help you sort out what’s happening.

Narcissistic Abuse: When Everything Looks Fine — But You Know It Isn’t…

Many of my clients are intelligent, capable, high-functioning professionals. From the outside, life may look successful. Privately, they may be questioning their reality, losing confidence, and struggling with the effects of narcissistic abuse.

Narcissistic abuse does not discriminate by intelligence, education, or success.

Many accomplished people spend months—or years—trying to understand what has happened before seeking a specialized narcissistic abuse therapist who understands psychological abuse and relational trauma.

Recovery should not require you to repeatedly retell your story.

Effective recovery requires more than understanding what happened – it requires experienced, specialized support.

That depth of experience is how I approach this work.

Experience. Depth. Wisdom.

12+ years of specialized practice in narcissistic abuse recovery

1,350+ clients

10,000+ clinical hours

Experience builds knowledge.

Depth strengthens clinical understanding.

Wisdom is knowing what to do with both.

A Structured Approach to Recovery

My work moves beyond understanding the relationship to processing its impact and rebuilding clarity, emotional stability, boundaries and self-trust.

Rather than open-ended psychotherapy, The Structured Recovery Protocol™ is focused and intentionally structured, with deeper trauma processing incorporated where clinically appropriate.

STABILIZATION → CLARITY → REBUILD → TRAUMA PROCESSING → INTEGRATION

Clients can begin at whichever stage best reflects where they are in their recovery. The process is flexible and tailored to individual needs.

The work is designed to support you:

Navigate your current situation.

Regulate your nervous system.

Understand and heal patterns of narcissistic abuse.

Process unresolved trauma with Brainspotting or EMDR.

Rebuild self-trust, boundaries, confidence, and resilience.

Move forward with greater emotional freedom.

Treatment is typically structured over approximately 5–8 sessions ($3,500–$5,600 CAD), depending on individual clinical needs.

How do I know if I’m experiencing narcissistic abuse, and where can I get help?

Narcissistic abuse can be difficult to recognize, particularly when gaslighting, emotional manipulation, blame-shifting, and coercive control have gradually undermined your confidence in your own perceptions.

Common signs include chronic self-doubt, anxiety, walking on eggshells, emotional exhaustion, and feeling responsible for someone else’s behaviour. You may find yourself questioning your memory, minimizing your experiences, or struggling to trust your own judgment.

These patterns can occur in relationships with a romantic partner, parent, family member, friend or colleague. You don’t need a formal diagnosis of narcissistic personality disorder in the other person to recognize that a relationship is emotionally harmful.

Specialized psychotherapy can help you understand what you’ve experience, rebuild self-trust in your perceptions, establish healthy boundaries, and process the emotional impact of relationships.

Martha C. Digby, RP, is a Registered Psychotherapist specializing exclusively in narcissistic abuse recovery and relational trauma since 2014. Through her Structured Recovery Protocol™, she helps clients move through stabilization, clarity, boundaries and self-trust, trauma processing, and integration.

What kind of therapist helps with a narcissistic mother, father, sibling, or boss?

Look for a psychotherapist experienced in narcissistic abuse and complex relational trauma, particularly the lasting effects of emotional manipulation, gaslighting, coercive control, and difficult family or workplace dynamics.

When the relationship involves a narcissistic parent or sibling, the effects may include longstanding guilt, self-doubt, difficulty establishing boundaries, and a diminished sense of identity. Workplace narcissistic abuse can similarly undermine confidence, emotional stability, and trust in your own judgment.

Martha C. Digby, RP, works with adults recovering from narcissistic abuse involving parents, siblings, intimate partners, and professional relationships. Her Structured Recovery Protocol™ focuses on restoring clarity, strengthening boundaries and self-trust, and processing relational trauma when clinically appropriate.

How can I find a therapist who truly understands narcissism and narcissistic abuse?

Understanding narcissism involves more than recognizing narcissistic personality traits. A therapist specializing in narcissistic abuse should understand the relational patterns of gaslighting, manipulation, blame-shifting, coercive control, and trauma bonding, along with their lasting psychological effects.

Effective therapy should address not only what happened in the relationship, but also how those experiences have affected your perceptions, emotional stability, boundaries, and ability to trust yourself.

Martha C. Digby, RP, specializes in narcissistic abuse recovery, using The Structured Recovery Protocol™ to support clarity, emotional regulation, trauma processing, and the rebuilding of self-trust.
