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.

Personality Disorders
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
When long‑standing patterns of coping, relating, or identity feel rigid or overwhelming, it can be hard to understand why they developed or how to shift them. Many people who have been given, or are wondering about, a personality disorder diagnosis are living with a complex mix of early attachment experiences, chronic stress, and protective strategies that became deeply ingrained over time. I approach these patterns as understandable adaptations rather than fixed traits. In our work, we look at what these strategies have been managing, how they shape your sense of self and your relationships, and what more flexible and grounded ways of relating might be possible now. We move at a pace that respects your nervous system and the depth of what these patterns have carried.

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
Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Personality disorders can have significant impacts on our relationships and, ultimately, our lives in general. These are difficult to address because they have been a part of our...well, personality...for a long time and often operate on a subconscious level. Understanding the ways our personalities develop and the impact certain characteristics have on our lives is a first step in creating new patterns for ourselves.
