Frank Yeomans describes the difference between lies and delusion (and psychosis) within narcissistic pathology, with several clinical examples focusing on employment situations from his TransferenceFocused Psychotherapy practice.
Why do people delude themselves? What is the real purpose of narcissistic lies or delusions? How are they different from psychosis? What is their impact on relationships? Does lying to people mean you are antisocial or have NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder)? How should a therapist handle a client who is delusional?
Dr. Frank Yeomans is an expert clinician who makes use of TransferenceFocused Psychotherapy in his practice treating NPD and BPD. In fact, he cowrote the manual on TFP for Borderline Personality Disorder!
