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.

Insight Psychological Group
Psychologist, Psy.D.s, LCSWs, LPCs, LCADCs...
Notoriously difficult to treat, many clients who have some form of personality disorder simply do not feel like they have a personality disorder. It's not self-deception; it's just confusing. Oftentimes one's closest family members insinuate that there's something wrong with them, and that's really very hard to accept. A big part of the treatment is coming to trust one's therapist and having the courage to hear uncomfortable truths. The good part is that new interpersonal skills are learnable, and a broader, deeper and more complex personality can emerge.

Murphy Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
Personality disorder diagnoses are often surrounded by stigma, but a diagnosis does not define your character or determine your future. I specialize in helping clients understand longstanding emotional and relational patterns with compassion while developing greater self-awareness, flexibility, coping skills, and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
