Personality Disorders
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.
I work with adults 18+ who are navigating challenges related to personality disorders, including borderline personality disorder, narcissistic traits, or other patterns that impact relationships, emotions, and daily functioning. 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.

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.

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.

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.
