Personality Disorders therapists in Cold Spring, Kentucky KY
Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LCAC, LPC, LPCC
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I offer a specialized and compassionate approach to treating personality disorders through psychodynamic therapy. My practice uniquely integrates techniques from Gestalt therapy, mindfulness, and experiential methods, creating a safe and empathetic environment where clients can deeply explore and address the complexities of their personality disorders.
Understanding that personality disorders often involve deeply ingrained patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving, my approach focuses on uncovering and resolving the unconscious processes that contribute to these patterns. By delving into these deeper layers, clients gain insight into the root causes of their struggles, whether they stem from early life experiences, trauma, or relational dynamics. This comprehensive understanding facilitates more effective and lasting change.
What sets my practice apart is my commitment to genuine therapeutic connection and present-moment awareness. I emphasize the importance of a strong, trusting relationship where clients feel safe to explore their inner worlds and confront challenging aspects of their personality. Through this connection, we work together to develop healthier coping mechanisms, improve interpersonal relationships, and build a more integrated sense of self.
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I tailor each treatment plan to the specific needs of my clients with personality disorders, ensuring they receive the most relevant and effective care. By integrating psychodynamic principles with experiential techniques, I help clients transform their struggles into opportunities for profound personal growth and resilience.
You will find a dedicated partner in your journey toward emotional stability and personal fulfillment. Together, we will work to address the unique challenges of your personality disorder, empower you with the tools and insights needed for lasting change, and guide you toward a future filled with hope and self-acceptance.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating personality disorders for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. I use a skills-based treatment called Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to focus on teaching my clients techniques in the areas of emotion regulation, relationships, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. Please note that I offer a modified version of this therapy that includes individual therapy only. A full program in DBT typically includes both individual therapy and group therapy which may be a more appropriate fit for you. You and I can discuss which option is the best for your needs.

Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Personality disorder diagnoses can come with the stigma that we are inherently flawed. This could not be further from the truth if we believe that change is always possible.

Dr. Christine Manley
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
I treat Narcissism as well as the survivors of narcissistic abuse. The effects of narcissism often manifest within individuals' relationships (romantic, professional, academic, etc.). Chronic anger, perfectionism, shame-proneness, rejection-sensitivity, haughtiness/snobbery, feeling consistently unappreciated and not concerning oneself with others' feelings are just a few indications that narcissism may be effecting your life. Contrary to popular belief, narcissism is treatable. If you or someone you know is coping with consequences related to narcissism/narcissistic abuse, contact me to begin treatment.
