NARCISSISTS AND SELF-ESTEEM: : DEBUNKING THE "COMPENSATION" MYTH

Do narcissists secretly suffer from low self-esteem? Are their grandiose behaviors a mask for inner shame or childhood trauma? In this video, Dr. Peter Salerno—Doctor of Psychology, personality disorder specialist, and expert featured in Ted Bundy: Dialogue with the Devil—challenges one of the most persistent myths in clinical psychology: that narcissism is a defense against low self-worth. Drawing on recent research in personality psychology and psychotherapy, Dr. Salerno explains why narcissistic grandiosity is not a cover for insecurity but rather a reflection of rigid, inflated self-perception and a chronic need for dominance, admiration, and control. You'll learn: • Why covert narcissism is not the same as vulnerability • What “fragile” self-esteem really means in narcissism • Why therapy that boosts self-esteem does not help narcissists • Why narcissism is rooted in self-enhancement, not shame For more research-based insights into narcissistic personality disorder, check out Dr. Salerno’s book, The Nature and Nurture of Narcissism.
