Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Personality disorder diagnoses can come with the stigma that we are inherently flawed. This could not be further from the truth if we believe that change is always possible.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals navigating personality disorders, offering a structured, skill-based approach grounded in understanding patterns rather than labeling or judgment. If you find yourself stuck in intense emotional cycles, relationship challenges, or reactions that feel hard to control, we work together to make sense of those patterns and create meaningful change. Using evidence-based approaches like DBT along with mind-body awareness, I help you build skills for emotional regulation, improve relationships, and develop a stronger, more stable sense of self. My goal is to support you in creating lasting change in a way that feels both practical and empowering.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, or struggle to keep close relationships, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats relationship and interpersonal issues typically using Functional Analytic Psychotherapy and/or Assertiveness Training. These approaches combine new insights with new skills so you can be more effective in your relationships and re-build damaged relationships.

Cheryl S Rubenstein
Psychologist, PhD
I have worked with various personality disorders over the years. One thing I have found to make a big difference in how therapy goes is the nature of the therapeutic relationship, and this seems particularly true for work with personality disorders.
