Personality Disorders
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals experiencing personality-related difficulties, including long-standing patterns that impact emotional regulation, relationships, self-image, and overall functioning. These challenges are often associated with chronic interpersonal conflict, emotional instability, difficulty maintaining relationships, and persistent patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that feel hard to change.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach, recognizing that personality-related patterns often develop in response to early childhood trauma, attachment wounds, emotional neglect, abuse, or invalidating environments. Therapy focuses on increasing insight, emotional awareness, and the ability to understand and gradually shift long-standing relational and behavioral patterns.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation skills, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting change. Treatment often involves exploring past experiences, attachment dynamics, and core beliefs that continue to influence present-day relationships, emotional responses, and identity.
Personality-related challenges are typically persistent and deeply rooted, which means meaningful progress often requires consistent, structured therapeutic work. Rather than focusing only on surface-level behaviors, therapy emphasizes understanding underlying emotional pain, processing trauma, and developing healthier ways of relating to self and others.
Brad also works with couples and families when appropriate to support improved communication, healthier boundaries, and more stable relational dynamics. This collaborative approach can help reduce conflict, increase understanding, and support more balanced and functional relationships over time.
The goal of therapy is not to label or define a person, but to support emotional growth, greater self-awareness, and the ability to build healthier, more stable, and more fulfilling relationships. With the right support and commitment, meaningful change is possible.

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.

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.

Personality Disorders
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.
