Recognizing Unhealthy Patterns in Relationships

Have you ever been in a relationship where conversations seem to revolve around one person, conflict feels impossible to resolve, or you constantly question what went wrong? Understanding narcissism can help you recognize unhealthy relationship patterns and respond with greater clarity, wisdom, and healthy boundaries.

Understanding Narcissism: Recognizing Unhealthy Patterns in Relationships is a live, faith-based Zoom webinar designed to help you better understand narcissistic behaviors and how they can affect relationships, communication, trust, and emotional well-being. Hosted by Becky Brown, President of New Life, and presented by Stacey Smith, a licensed therapist and betrayal trauma specialist, this practical and insightful webinar combines clinical understanding with biblical truth to help you recognize unhealthy patterns without resorting to labels or diagnoses.

This webinar is not about diagnosing narcissistic personality disorder. Instead, the focus is on understanding behaviors, relational dynamics, and patterns that can create confusion, conflict, and emotional strain.

In this 90-minute webinar + live Q&A, you’ll learn:

• What narcissistic behaviors can look like in everyday relationships
• How unhealthy narcissistic patterns can develop and affect relationships
• How narcissistic behaviors can impact communication, conflict, trust, and emotional connection
• How to recognize patterns of control, defensiveness, blame, entitlement, or manipulation
• Why understanding the behavior is different from diagnosing a person
• Practical ways to establish healthy boundaries in difficult relationships
• How to respond with wisdom rather than getting pulled into unhealthy relational cycles
• Biblical principles for navigating challenging relationships with truth, compassion, and discernment
• When counseling or additional professional support may be helpful

Whether you’re navigating a difficult relationship, trying to make sense of someone’s behavior, or simply want to grow in relational wisdom, this webinar will give you practical insight and tools you can begin applying immediately.

This is an opportunity to move beyond the label and gain a clearer understanding of narcissism, unhealthy relationship patterns, boundaries, and healthier ways to respond.
