Siddharth Arora
Psychiatrist, DO, MS
Treating personality disorders requires thoughtful coordination and consistency. While psychotherapy is central, our role focuses on managing co-occurring symptoms such as mood instability, anxiety, or impulsivity through appropriate medication support. We work closely with therapists and patients to ensure our medication plans enhance rather than overshadow therapeutic work, helping individuals manage symptoms that interfere with relationships and functioning.

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.

Gina Majestro
Psychologist, PsyD, HSP, HSPP
Sometimes it feels like you’re doing everything “right,” but inside, you still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the person you want to be. You may have patterns that feel impossible to break, relationships that seem unstable, or emotions that feel too intense or unpredictable. Maybe you’ve carried old wounds for a long time, and you’re ready for something to finally shift.
I work with adults navigating the challenges of personality disorders, helping you move beyond survival and start truly living. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful of your story. Together, we’ll explore the protective patterns that once helped you cope — and build new ways of feeling grounded, connected, and at home in yourself.
You don’t have to do this alone. Healing is possible, even if you’ve tried before and nothing seemed to work.
I offer in person therapy in Louisville, KY and virtual therapy for adults in Kentucky, Indiana, and across 42 PSYPACT states.
If you’re ready to move from surviving to truly living, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
