Abstract

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder that seriously impairs mental health and affects an individual’s life. This review aims to provide an overview of NPD. This article summarizes the etiology, subtypes and psychotherapy of narcissistic personality disorder. In the results and discussion, we categorize a variety of treatment options, focusing on Transference-Focused-Psychotherapy and other supportive Psychotherapy and therapeutic models and other treatment options that can help patients with NPD return to normal social life. Overall, this article can serve as a preliminary understanding of narcissistic personality disorder for anyone with an academic interest in this issue. At the same time, our study provides basic concepts for future research on NPD’s cause, pathogenesis, and treatment.
