Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address personality disorders with a comprehensive and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and personal growth. Recognizing the challenges associated with personality disorders, I create a therapeutic space that combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with biblical teachings on grace, redemption, and transformation. I may incorporate prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on identity in Christ to help individuals explore the roots of their personality challenges. Collaborating with clients, I aim to foster self-awareness, coping mechanisms, and a deeper understanding of one's identity within the framework of Christian beliefs. This integrated approach seeks to support individuals in navigating the complexities of personality disorders while promoting spiritual and emotional well-being.

Personality 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.
