Personality Disorders
Stephanie Ennen
Therapist, LPC,LCPC, LMHC
I specialize in providing therapeutic support for individuals with personality disorders. I understand that these conditions can profoundly impact relationships, self-image, and daily functioning. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to meet your unique needs.
In our sessions, we will work together to explore the underlying patterns of behavior and thought that characterize your experiences. Utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I focus on building essential skills in emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. These skills can empower you to manage intense emotions and improve your relationships with others.
I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, fostering a healthier self-image and more adaptive coping strategies.
A key component of my approach is psychoeducation. By understanding your personality disorder and its effects on your life, you can gain valuable insights and tools to facilitate change. Together, we will develop personalized strategies for managing symptoms and enhancing emotional well-being.
My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express your thoughts and feelings openly. Together, we can work towards fostering self-awareness, building healthier relationships, and creating a more fulfilling life.

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.

Not everyone’s brain works the same way. Some folks have a bigger emotional reaction to a fight and a slower return to baseline. Some people struggle with focus and concentration. Some people find they can be hyperfocused on a task to the detriment of their job, or might feel very overwhelmed in a crowd. For a lot of our patients, being diagnosed with is the first difficult but necessary step to change, whether it’s finding out you have ADHD, PTSD, a personality disorder or if you’re on the Autism spectrum. Learning about how your brain works can help you become more adaptive, so that you can better apply your strengths and avoid pitfalls. Our therapists love working with brains of all varieties, including yours.
