Personality Disorders
Catherine Saunders
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
PD is one of the most difficult subjects in Psychology. Although I might not have the time or resources to fully address a client with such a disorder, I can offer tools and support. I work with several clients who are in relationship with another person who might have a PD, and the Psychoeducation I can offer from my training in this specialty has been helpful to these clients’ understanding.

Malama Counseling, LLC

Personality disorders are inflexible, and maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that differ significantly from cultural expectations. These conditions impair social, occupational, and personal functioning, causing intense distress or instability. The treatment usually involves medication and long-term psychotherapy. I help clients with DBT.

Personality Disorders
Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Personality disorders often involve long-standing patterns related to emotional regulation, self-image, interpersonal functioning, attachment, impulsivity, and coping with stress or vulnerability. These patterns can significantly affect relationships, identity, emotional wellbeing, and day-to-day functioning, often leading to recurring conflict, emotional instability, shame, loneliness, or difficulty feeling understood by others.
I provide therapy for individuals struggling with personality-related difficulties using an approach that is compassionate, relational, and grounded in evidence-based psychological treatment. Therapy focuses on increasing emotional awareness, improving relationship functioning, understanding recurring behavioral patterns, and helping clients develop a more stable and integrated sense of self.

Portland has a strong therapy culture deeply intertwined with its progressive values, with high demand for therapists who specialize in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, trauma, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city's visible homelessness crisis and political tensions have contributed to significant community-level anxiety, and therapists here frequently address activist burnout, moral injury, and eco-anxiety alongside more traditional presenting concerns. Oregon Health & Science University provides major institutional mental health resources, complemented by a dense network of independent practitioners across the inner eastside, Hawthorne, and Northwest Portland. Oregon's relatively permissive telehealth laws make it particularly easy to access care from across the state.
