At Two Lights Therapy Center in Chicago, we believe nearly every emotional struggle has one thing in common: attachment trauma. Whether you’re healing from narcissistic abuse, chronic anxiety, or painful relationship patterns, our attachment-focused EMDR approach helps you address the root and not just the symptoms.

Healing from narcissistic abuse isn’t always super straightforward. If you’ve felt stuck in therapy, it doesn’t mean you or your therapist are failing, but it may be time to integrate bottom-up trauma therapies like EMDR. With the right support and active engagement outside of sessions, recovery is possible.

Explore this blog if you’ve ever had questions like what creates a narcissist, and can a narcissist change? Narcissistic traits often stem from early attachment wounds, emotional neglect, and trauma, but healing isn’t as simple as understanding where it all began. This blog breaks down the complex roots of narcissism without justifying harmful behavior, and explores why change is only possible if the narcissistic person is willing to do the work themselves.
