Personality Disorders
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.

Personality Disorders
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
The word disorder is misleading. What gets called a personality disorder is almost always a self that organized itself brilliantly around conditions that demanded it — conditions that were often unbearable. The rigidity, the intensity, the patterns that keep producing the same crises: these are not defects. They are architecture. And architecture can be understood, respected, and — slowly, from the inside — redesigned. This work is long. It requires a relationship that can withstand what the person brings into the room. That is the point.

Personality Disorders
Jacinda Andrews
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD-C, LPC, NCC
Living with a Type A personality can feel like being driven by an unrelenting need for order, control, and perfection. While these traits may have helped you succeed in some areas, they can also create stress, rigid thinking, strained relationships, and difficulty adapting to change. Together, we'll explore these patterns with curiosity rather than judgment, build greater flexibility, and develop practical skills to help you find balance, improve relationships, and create a life guided by your values rather than perfection.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Living with a personality disorder can make relationships, work, and everyday life feel challenging or unpredictable. It can also leave you feeling misunderstood or stuck in patterns that don’t feel like “you.” Therapy can help. Together we’ll explore the ways your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and develop tools to respond differently in your daily life. Using evidence-informed approaches, we’ll focus on building self-awareness, improving emotional regulation, strengthening relationships, and supporting lasting change. Whether you’re managing intense emotions, relationship difficulties, or self-criticism, we’ll work together to create strategies that make life feel more manageable and fulfilling.
