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.

I provide specialized therapy for individuals experiencing symptoms related to personality disorders, including borderline, narcissistic, or other Cluster B presentations.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, working with adults who experience longstanding patterns in relationships, emotional regulation, or self-experience that can feel difficult to change. These patterns are often deeply rooted in earlier relational experiences and may lead to recurring difficulties with closeness, trust, or stability in relationships.
My work is grounded in the belief that these patterns develop for understandable reasons and can be approached with curiosity rather than judgment. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy offers a space to explore how these experiences have taken shape over time and how they emerge within current relationships, including within therapy itself. Through sustained attention and understanding, individuals can gradually develop greater flexibility and stability in how they experience themselves and others.
I also work with couples who wish to better understand how these patterns affect relational dynamics.
