Personality 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.

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. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Treating personality disorders is one of my clinical specialties. Although personality disorders are, by definition, long-standing problems, they can indeed be treated. I generally use one of four contemporary psychodynamic approaches (i.e., Transference-Focused Psychotherapy, Supportive-Expressive Therapy, Mentalization-Based Treatment, and Supportive Therapy), either alone or in combination, to help people improve. I have published professional works (i.e., articles; a book) on psychodynamic therapy as well. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.

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.
