Each individual's journey as an adult child of narcissists is unique, encompassing a range of personality traits shaped by their upbringing. While not all may exhibit the same characteristics, common themes emerge from research and professional observations. These traits include negative self-perception, marked by low self-esteem, chronic self-blame, difficulty with boundaries, and insecure attachment styles, leading to emotional challenges such as people-pleasing tendencies, hypervigilance, emotional dysregulation, and struggles with trust and intimacy. Yet, amidst these adversities, positive attributes often emerge, cultivated through resilience and growth. These include empathy, resilience, independence, and heightened intuition, reflecting their capacity for understanding, strength, autonomy, and emotional attunement forged through overcoming challenging experiences.

He has been specializing in the treatment and assessment of individuals with personality disorders for over 20 years in the state and federal prison system, universities, and in private practice.
