Welcome to the course on ‘Narcissistic Behaviour & Relationships: Psychology’.

If you are interested in learning about relationships and psychology, then you are in the   right place. Or perhaps you are a therapist, a coach, or a person engaged in self- development and growth, who wants to learn about narcissism and NPD? Perhaps you would like to understand your own experience of being in a toxic relationship or, maybe you work with the clients that have been through toxic relationships (or still in them!) and who want to improve their life for the better?

In any case, welcome to my class! My name is Elmira Strange and I’m a professional researcher, instructor and motivational coach with MPhil in Counselling and Psychology. After completing this course you will have a good and clear understanding of the relationships where narcissism plays a vital role. You will understand the nature of toxic relationships, how to prevent them by spotting the ‘Red Flags’ during dating, and how to set up healthy boundaries in any relationship.

You will also learn about various forms of abuse, and you will understand how ‘gaslighting’, manipulation and control happen within a toxic relationship.

Additionally, in this course you will learn about the nature of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), the symptoms of healthy Vs toxic relationships, and the ‘signs’ of a narcissistic behaviour that you need to spot during your dating experience. If you (or your client) ask yourself ‘should you continue with the existing relationship or should you leave for good’, then you will get some answers in this course too.

Finally, if you (or your client) remains in the relationship that is turning toxic, you will understand what is possible to do in order to resolve some issues by setting up ‘healthy’ boundaries. However, if you (or your client) decide to leave the relationship, in the last section of this course you will learn how to separate from a narcissist effectively and how to heal from the experience afterwards.

If you feel that this course can provide you with some important answers, then don’t wait any longer. Enrol now and I’ll see you in my class!

You will have the following skills after completing this course:

• What is 'narcissism' and its symptoms / signs
• What are the 'warning signs' and 'red flags' in dating
• The difference between 'healthy' and 'toxic' relationships
• The signs when the relationship turns 'toxic'
• How to leave an abusive relationship and start healing
