Silvian is a compassionate and insightful counsellor specialising in narcissistic behaviour trauma counselling. With a focused understanding of narcissistic personality traits, emotional manipulation and relational dynamics, Silvian supports individuals who are navigating the impact of narcissistic abuse in personal, family or workplace settings. Clients may present with symptoms of anxiety, depression, complex trauma or relational instability. Many have experienced early parentification, scapegoating or emotional neglect, which later predisposes them to repeating similar relational dynamics in adulthood. Silvian’s work focuses on helping clients identify these patterns, understand the psychological mechanisms involved, and develop healthier relational frameworks.

Clients may feel confused, emotionally drained, or question their self-worth after experiencing narcissistic behaviours. Through a supportive and non-judgemental approach, Silvian helps clients rebuild confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and regain clarity and emotional balance. Many clients arrive feeling confused, self-doubting, and emotionally depleted. They often question their own perceptions, minimise their experiences, or carry a persistent sense of shame and “not being enough.” Silvian’s role is to provide a psychologically informed, structured, and safe therapeutic space where these patterns can be understood and meaningfully addressed.

Narcissistic abuse is rarely overt at the beginning. It is typically subtle, cumulative, and psychologically disorienting. Over time, it can significantly affect: Self-esteem and identity cohesion; Emotional regulation; Attachment patterns; Boundary formation and Confidence in one’s own perceptions. Silvian provides a safe, structured environment for reflection, growth, and empowerment. Silvian’s goal is to help clients develop resilience, strengthen self-awareness, and move toward healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
