Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include personality disorder therapy, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic traits, emotional dysregulation, interpersonal challenges, and trauma-informed care for adults.

Many clients come to therapy feeling misunderstood, stuck in recurring patterns, or frustrated by conflict in relationships and self-concept. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and trauma-informed, helping clients develop insight, emotional regulation, and healthier interpersonal strategies. Therapy is a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore patterns, build self-awareness, and strengthen coping skills while working toward more fulfilling relationships and a stable sense of self.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Personality disorders reflect enduring patterns shaped by early relational and survival needs. IFS, DBT-informed skills, attachment, and psychodynamic approaches provide a compassionate framework for reducing shame and building new relational patterns. Integrative and mindfulness further support emotional regulation. I also work closely with prescribers when symptoms require medical support, and my diagnostic training helps distinguish overlapping conditions such as trauma or mood disorders.
