Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals navigating personality disorders, offering a structured, skill-based approach grounded in understanding patterns rather than labeling or judgment. If you find yourself stuck in intense emotional cycles, relationship challenges, or reactions that feel hard to control, we work together to make sense of those patterns and create meaningful change. Using evidence-based approaches like DBT along with mind-body awareness, I help you build skills for emotional regulation, improve relationships, and develop a stronger, more stable sense of self. My goal is to support you in creating lasting change in a way that feels both practical and empowering.

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.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Personality disorders are often talked about in ways that are flat, stigmatizing, or overly simplified—reducing complex human experiences to labels that can feel limiting or misunderstood. Many people who receive these diagnoses have long histories of navigating intense emotions, relationship challenges, identity questions, or environments that didn’t feel stable or safe. These patterns didn’t come out of nowhere—they developed for a reason. And for some, the diagnosis itself may not fully capture the nuance of what they’re experiencing.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t reduce you to a label. We focus on understanding the patterns—how you experience yourself, how you relate to others, how you cope when things feel overwhelming or uncertain. From there, we actively work with you to build more stability, flexibility, and clarity in those areas. This can include emotional regulation, communication, boundary-setting, and developing a more grounded and consistent sense of self. We also look at the cultural, relational, and systemic context that shaped these patterns, so you’re not internalizing something that had a context. This is thoughtful, collaborative work focused on helping you move toward relationships and a sense of self that feel more steady, more connected, and more aligned with who you want to be.
