The Narcissist’s Playbook – Vaknin Under Attack
Sam Vaknin has been accused of abusing his therapy clients and false academic credentials. A further development results in him coming under another attack. I break down precisely what is happening and why.

just listening to Ep.8 of Isla’s podcast on the matter. really not at ease with this Grannon-centred hero theme. i find it hard to believe Grannon is the hapless, unsuspecting underling/friend/business partner he’s portraying himself as.
You are correct. Grannon actually damages the credibility of the allegations, because his involvement provides an easy option for deflection, which Vaknin has already used namely “This is Grannon engaging in another hit piece” and he may not be wrong about that. In effect Vaknin is potentially using the truth to nullify a threat to control and Grannon is using the truth (Vaknin´s alleged abuse of his therapy clients) to assert control over Vaknin.
I reported Sam Vaknim to YouTube and referred them to The Storyteller podcast. Sam is not a professor of psychology. His degree was allegedly from Pacific Western an online un-accredited university that closed after California pursued legal action as a diplomat mill. None of his creds stack up, there is no degree at all. Second, Isla has written evidence where he holds himself as a therapist. Sam lures women through the YouTube channel, treats them in “ therapy” claiming to be a doctor or therapist and the allegations are he abuses and rapes them. There are three official police reports in the last 5 years per Isla, the investigative journalist, I reported him as “ harm to others” based on this. If YouTube can cancel Alex Jones, it can cancel Sam Vaknim. Watch The Storyteller then report Sam Vaknim. I wrote the editor and writer at the Independent. Shame on them! You can write them too. Let’s work as a team to protect women from future harm. As you will hear, not every women has access to justice in certain countries. Criminal prosecution is possible but if YouTube cancels Sam, the risk to others is much less . Two of the three biggest advertisers for YouTube are in the US, such as Disney. Complain to them too. The email is an easy search on Google. Our US companies should not be funding people who commit crimes. Watch The Storyteller then report him. It’s free to Apple users. It’s a horror story that’s true. The Patreon has Isla’s blog where even more evidence is presented. Copies of emails and texts and she has the Meta data too to authenticate it. Isla has 1000s of documents and photos. We have been sharing stories of narcissistic abuse for years, this is real time and there are ways to help!
Hi Contagious,
I’ve reported his YouTube channel.
I’m up to Episode 17 of Isla’s podcast and it just gets worse and worse.
It’s unbelievable that this sleazy, lying, old blowhard is treated like some kind of expert. He is pathetic.
While listening to the podcast, it crossed my mind that he avoids paying tax on income he earns from therapy ‘clients’ and from the speaking events he did with Richard Grannon. It seems he always wants to be paid cash in brown paper bags. The nutty professor already has a criminal record for fraud.
It could be easier to convict him for tax evasion than for coercive control or sexual abuse. It reminds me of the gangster Al Capone who dodged arrest for serious gangster crimes and was eventually convicted for not filing his tax returns.
Hi Contagious & WN,
I reported him on YouTube too.
WN, I like your idea of getting him on tax evasion!
Apple wouldn’t play the explicit podcasts without an account so I’ve been listening on Audioboom. I didn’t even need an account on that platform.
