Personality Disorders
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.

Personality Disorders
Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Personality disorders can have significant impacts on our relationships and, ultimately, our lives in general. These are difficult to address because they have been a part of our...well, personality...for a long time and often operate on a subconscious level. Understanding the ways our personalities develop and the impact certain characteristics have on our lives is a first step in creating new patterns for ourselves.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals experiencing personality-related difficulties, including long-standing patterns that impact emotional regulation, relationships, self-image, and overall functioning. These challenges are often associated with chronic interpersonal conflict, emotional instability, difficulty maintaining relationships, and persistent patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that feel hard to change.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach, recognizing that personality-related patterns often develop in response to early childhood trauma, attachment wounds, emotional neglect, abuse, or invalidating environments. Therapy focuses on increasing insight, emotional awareness, and the ability to understand and gradually shift long-standing relational and behavioral patterns.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation skills, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting change. Treatment often involves exploring past experiences, attachment dynamics, and core beliefs that continue to influence present-day relationships, emotional responses, and identity.
Personality-related challenges are typically persistent and deeply rooted, which means meaningful progress often requires consistent, structured therapeutic work. Rather than focusing only on surface-level behaviors, therapy emphasizes understanding underlying emotional pain, processing trauma, and developing healthier ways of relating to self and others.
Brad also works with couples and families when appropriate to support improved communication, healthier boundaries, and more stable relational dynamics. This collaborative approach can help reduce conflict, increase understanding, and support more balanced and functional relationships over time.
The goal of therapy is not to label or define a person, but to support emotional growth, greater self-awareness, and the ability to build healthier, more stable, and more fulfilling relationships. With the right support and commitment, meaningful change is possible.
