I may not go as deep as my podcast episodes, but I make up for it with a more dynamic and visually appealing approach. It's the perfect solution for those who want to grasp the essence of narcissistic dynamics without committing to a longer podcast episode.

Join me on this journey as we decode narcissism together. Subscribe now, and let's unravel the fascinating world of narcissism in a way that suits your preference - concise, captivating, and always insightful.

Dive into the fascinating world of narcissism - the secrets lie below!

Read what our viewers are saying

This shift in clarity is in no small part thanks to your enlightening education, which you so graciously put out into the world.

The main point I'm trying to get across is my deep gratefulness to you for your psychoanalytic teachings, which have FINALLY brought some relief and SANITY for me!

…. how much RELIEF your podcasts and YouTube videos are bringing me. THANK YOU! Thank you! Thank you!

…..you are singular among podcasts, in that you are compassionate, curious and not only looking to help and heal those who identify as victims but those who identify as narcissists.

I really just wanted to let you know how much impact you have and the precious gift of relief and sanity you have given to me, which was elusive despite the 4-5 years work I've put in prior.

I am just so thankful for your podcast, that I found while continuing my search on healing from narcissism..

Listening to your podcasts has helped me to understand some problems within ME and my own personality. For example, I was listening to your recent episode on anger, hatred, and rage when I realized that I myself am plagued with symptoms of hate and rage. For some reason I'm able to take your approach and be open- minded about applying the concepts to my own behaviors that match your descriptions as well as applying them to what I see in my husband's.

You're being so helpful to me; thank you! I took your questions and went back through my journal & wrote out the answers to your questions pertaining to specific conflicts, and that is helping me ….

Dr. Mazzella, you are a rare gem of a psychotherapist. You are one of very few authentic professionals on YouTube who isn't afraid to tell it like it is ...

Your balanced perspectives are exactly what people need to hear, so they can open their minds and challenge their thoughts, strong beliefs, perspectives, and actions.

 

Your content is so valuable to me and others. I've shared your YT channel to 2 friends so far that I think would benefit. …Honestly, I think everyone could benefit from your extensive knowledge on these issues!

In today’s episode, we explore the concept of "pushing away" difficult truths and how it only creates more problems in the long run. Whether it’s infertility, toxic relationships, or loss, avoiding these challenges doesn't make them go away. Mindfulness and integration are key to facing painful realities and building a life that embraces the full spectrum of our experiences.

What Healing Narcissism Really Looks Like

The Narcissism Decoder July 30, 2025 6:01 am

Ever notice how someone shifts from discomfort to cheerfulness too quickly?
In this episode, Dr. Mazzella shares how avoiding difficult emotions—like disagreement or discomfort—can mask deeper narcissistic defenses. A compliment, a memory, or even a fight can become a defense against vulnerability.
Mindfulness and containment become vital tools to spot these patterns and gently bring them into awareness.

When Avoidance Looks Like Positivity

The Narcissism Decoder July 29, 2025 6:00 am

Why do so many people leave a narcissistic relationship… only to repeat it again?
In this episode, Dr. Mazzella explains how unresolved emotional needs and internalized patterns from childhood can unconsciously pull survivors into familiar dynamics—even after they’ve left the toxic partner.
Healing means more than leaving—it means facing the emotional blueprint we’re still carrying.

Why do so many people leave a narcissistic relationship… only to repeat it again?
In this episode, Dr. Mazzella explains how unresolved emotional needs and internalized patterns from childhood can unconsciously pull survivors into familiar dynamics—even after they’ve left the toxic partner.
Healing means more than leaving—it means facing the emotional blueprint we’re still carrying.

Why Survivors Struggle to Break the Pattern

The Narcissism Decoder July 27, 2025 6:00 am

What makes it so hard to walk away from someone who’s clearly hurting you?

In this episode, Dr. Mazzella explains how narcissistic relationships mirror cult dynamics and scams—offering an illusion of salvation, bliss, and togetherness. Leaving means giving up not only the fantasy, but also confronting painful realities and internalized propaganda.

The grief isn't just about the partner—it’s about the loss of the promise that things would finally get better.

Why Leaving a Narcissistic Relationship Feels Like Leaving a Cult

The Narcissism Decoder July 20, 2025 6:01 am

What happens when a relationship feels too good to be true—yet slowly starts to suffocate your individuality?

In this episode, Dr. Mazzella breaks down the illusion of blissful union often found in narcissistic relationships. It’s not just about love or closeness—it's about unmet childhood needs, enmeshment, and the inability to tolerate separateness.
Learn why constant togetherness isn’t always healthy—and how recognizing this red flag is the first step to healing.

Healing Narcissism Starts with Understanding the Structure 🧠🐢

The Narcissism Decoder June 22, 2025 6:00 am

In this Episode 79 and 80, we dive into the complex balance between stepping back and offering support in relationships. 🏍️✨
We sit down with Jim, a father whose daughter is struggling with traits that seem to align with vulnerable narcissism. We explore the emotional cost of trying to stay connected when love, guilt, helplessness, and longing collide.  Jim faces the emotional cost of constantly trying to fix his daughter’s problems. 

But what happens when the helper’s need to fix crosses into emotional collapse? In this segment of my conversation with Jim we dive into his internal struggle, not just with his daughter but with his own compulsion to fix her.
 What happens when you let someone experience failure to help them grow? Are you abandoning them or giving them the space they need to learn? The key is containment—being emotionally present without controlling their decisions. It’s about creating space for curiosity and connection, not taking over the relationship. Learn how curiosity fosters stronger relationships and why advice can sometimes be an unintentional form of abandonment. Listen to the full conversation now. 🎧

Are you being too controlling by offering advice?

The Narcissism Decoder June 15, 2025 6:00 am

But what happens when the helper’s need to fix crosses into emotional collapse? In this segment of my conversation with Jim we dive into his internal struggle, not just with his daughter but with his own compulsion to fix her.

How do you tell when someone's request is genuine, or is it all about control?

The Narcissism Decoder June 8, 2025 6:00 am

In this Episode 79 and 80, we explore the concept of containment and how it plays a vital role in relationships. 🧠 
We sit down with Jim, a father whose daughter is struggling with traits that seem to align with vulnerable narcissism. We explore the emotional cost of trying to stay connected when love, guilt, helplessness, and longing collide.  Jim faces the emotional cost of constantly trying to fix his daughter’s problems. 

But what happens when the helper’s need to fix crosses into emotional collapse? In this segment of my conversation with Jim we dive into his internal struggle, not just with his daughter but with his own compulsion to fix her.
It’s not about apologizing or taking fault when you’re not wrong, but rather validating emotions without absorbing the responsibility.
 By practicing containment, you support your loved ones without losing your own sense of self. Want to know how to avoid the burnout that comes from constantly “taking the heat”? Tune in now! 🎧

Are you exhausted from always “taking the heat” even when it’s not your fault?

The Narcissism Decoder June 1, 2025 6:00 am

In this powerful episode, Episode 79 and 80, we dive deep into the feelings of helplessness that can arise when you witness someone you care about self-destructing. 

We sit down with Jim, a father whose daughter is struggling with traits that seem to align with vulnerable narcissism. We explore the emotional cost of trying to stay connected when love, guilt, helplessness, and longing collide.  Jim faces the emotional cost of constantly trying to fix his daughter’s problems. 

But what happens when the helper’s need to fix crosses into emotional collapse? In this segment of my conversation with Jim we dive into his internal struggle, not just with his daughter but with his own compulsion to fix her.
Is it frustration, helplessness, or something else entirely? Dr. Mazzella explains how we can be unknowingly drawn into the dynamics of projective identification, where others project their struggles onto us, intensifying our own feelings of helplessness. It’s not just about being frustrated; it’s about understanding that sometimes, their pain is being shown to us in a way we can't ignore.
