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.

Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Living with a personality disorder can affect how you understand yourself, manage emotions, navigate relationships, and respond to challenging situations. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals experiencing patterns that may be affecting their relationships, emotional well-being, self-image, or daily life.
Our approach focuses on understanding the unique experiences behind these patterns while building practical skills for emotional regulation, communication, boundaries, self-awareness, and healthier relationships. We work collaboratively with clients to recognize strengths, identify unhelpful patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful goals for personal growth.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating personality disorders for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. I use a skills-based treatment called Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to focus on teaching my clients techniques in the areas of emotion regulation, relationships, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. Please note that I offer a modified version of this therapy that includes individual therapy only. A full program in DBT typically includes both individual therapy and group therapy which may be a more appropriate fit for you. You and I can discuss which option is the best for your needs.

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.
