When emotions feel intense and relationships become painful or unstable, it can feel like you are stuck repeating the same patterns.

Cheryl S Rubenstein
Psychologist, PhD
I have worked with various personality disorders over the years. One thing I have found to make a big difference in how therapy goes is the nature of the therapeutic relationship, and this seems particularly true for work with personality disorders.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
When long‑standing patterns of coping, relating, or identity feel rigid or overwhelming, it can be hard to understand why they developed or how to shift them. Many people who have been given, or are wondering about, a personality disorder diagnosis are living with a complex mix of early attachment experiences, chronic stress, and protective strategies that became deeply ingrained over time. I approach these patterns as understandable adaptations rather than fixed traits. In our work, we look at what these strategies have been managing, how they shape your sense of self and your relationships, and what more flexible and grounded ways of relating might be possible now. We move at a pace that respects your nervous system and the depth of what these patterns have carried.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
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.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Personality disorders reflect enduring patterns shaped by early relational and survival needs. IFS, DBT-informed skills, attachment, and psychodynamic approaches provide a compassionate framework for reducing shame and building new relational patterns. Integrative and mindfulness further support emotional regulation. I also work closely with prescribers when symptoms require medical support, and my diagnostic training helps distinguish overlapping conditions such as trauma or mood disorders.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
The word disorder is misleading. What gets called a personality disorder is almost always a self that organized itself brilliantly around conditions that demanded it — conditions that were often unbearable. The rigidity, the intensity, the patterns that keep producing the same crises: these are not defects. They are architecture. And architecture can be understood, respected, and — slowly, from the inside — redesigned. This work is long. It requires a relationship that can withstand what the person brings into the room. That is the point.

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.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Treating personality disorders is one of my clinical specialties. Although personality disorders are, by definition, long-standing problems, they can indeed be treated. I generally use one of four contemporary psychodynamic approaches (i.e., Transference-Focused Psychotherapy, Supportive-Expressive Therapy, Mentalization-Based Treatment, and Supportive Therapy), either alone or in combination, to help people improve. I have published professional works (i.e., articles; a book) on psychodynamic therapy as well. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.
