Exploring Techniques and Overcoming Overwhelming Busyness! 

In this episode, Dr. Mazzella explores techniques for overcoming  'all or nothing' thinking and behaviors. He addresses a listener's question about healing fragmented selves. The conversation explores the concept of splitting and integration, the perils of perceiving the world in extremes, and the importance of accepting differences without assuming disconnection. The goal is to achieve integration and a more nuanced understanding of oneself and others. The episode concludes with an example of how Dr. Mazzella treats this kind of extreme, black or white, all or nothing thinking in his practice.

For a deeper dive into narcissism, I now offer courses approved for continuing education credits, available [here]. As a NYS Education Department-approved provider (#SW-0211), licensed social workers in New York can earn credits through these programs. Also, these courses are a wonderful opportunity for those who may simply want to further educate themselves on all issues related to narcissistic and personality disorder dynamics.
