I've previously watched Many videos about this topic. This video was interesting as it talks about therapists not "getting" the narc relationship. In college, we didn't have a course about solely personality disorders. That may depend on which mental health field one is majoring in. Not sure. I remember one professor saying people with personality disorders are "evil." (wow lol). Anyhow, I think it would be difficult for a therapist to recognize right off that the client/patient is in a narc relationship. So, that might be a contributing factor in some therapists taking the approaches that they do/might.
@WICKEDPeople can't deal with personality disorders becaue they ARE our society. Of course the therapists have these symptoms too. They are no more prone to choose their profession well as anyone else. And once in the consulting room you find out. And if they are hurting you these days, there aren't a lot of other therapists...who won't hurt u too.
