Book a SessionUnderstanding Narcissistic Abuse
Narcissistic abuse is a form of emotional and psychological manipulation that leaves deep, often invisible wounds. It can occur in intimate relationships, families, friendships, and workplaces — and its effects can be long-lasting and profoundly destabilising.
Maria Sarina has specialised experience supporting survivors of narcissistic abuse. She provides a safe, non-judgmental space where you can begin to make sense of your experiences, rebuild your sense of self, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
Signs You May Have Experienced Narcissistic Abuse
Feeling confused, anxious, or constantly 'walking on eggshells'
Doubting your own memory or perception of events (gaslighting)
Feeling responsible for the other person's emotions and behaviour
Isolation from friends, family, or support networks
Loss of identity, confidence, or sense of self-worth
Difficulty trusting yourself or others
Cycles of idealisation, devaluation, and discard
Ongoing trauma symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, or emotional numbness
