Carol Shumate, Ph.D. - Type as a Defense Against Narcissism
Saturday, December 10, 2022, 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM PDT
Category: APTi Chapter Events

This virtual program is presented by the Bay Area Association for Psychological Type (BAAPT) chapter.

With typology, Jung gave us an important defense against narcissism. Psychological projection is the central tool of narcissism: it enables one to be entirely sincere and yet utterly duplicitous. However, the psychological cost is severe: It causes an ever-increasing blindness to the one thing we cannot do without—the self. Narcissists project their unwanted thoughts and qualities onto others, unaware that in doing so they are giving away their own power. To the extent that we can recognize our own narcissism, we can recognize and defend ourselves against narcissism in others—and regain our own power. With reference to some of the Jungian functions, this workshop will look at how to recognize narcissism, how narcissists seduce us, and how to handle a narcissist.Audio recordings of past BAAPT programs are available as a member benefit
