Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
I provide specialized therapy for individuals experiencing symptoms related to personality disorders, including borderline, narcissistic, or other Cluster B presentations. My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and focused on building emotional regulation, self-awareness, and healthier relationship patterns. Together, we explore underlying wounds, reduce distress, and develop practical coping skills. Using evidence-based approaches like DBT and schema therapy, I help clients foster stability, improve communication, and create more fulfilling, balanced connections.

Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
Being told you have a personality disorder—or even wondering if you might—can feel overwhelming or loaded with judgment. But in reality, these diagnoses often reflect long-standing patterns that developed as ways to survive difficult or painful experiences. They are not a character flaw. They are an invitation to look deeper at how you relate to yourself, your emotions, and the people in your life.
I work with people navigating traits related to personality disorders, whether that means intense emotions, fear of abandonment, identity confusion, impulsive behavior, or difficulty trusting others. Together, we explore how these patterns formed and how to respond to them with more awareness, choice, and care.
If you’ve been misunderstood or mislabeled in the past—or if you're doing the hard work of untangling complicated relationship dynamics—therapy can be a place to make sense of it all. Healing is possible, and it doesn’t require you to become someone else. It just asks you to stay curious and open to change.

Brownsville is one of the southernmost cities in the United States and sits directly on the US-Mexico border — sharing the border with Matamoros, Tamaulipas — with a population that is over 90% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life, making bilingual, bicultural therapy not a specialty but the baseline expectation for meaningful access to care. The city's poverty rate is among the highest in the United States, and therapists here frequently address the compounding effects of economic stress, immigration-related family separation, and the chronic anxiety of border community life. Valley Baptist Medical Center and the UT Health RGV system provide institutional mental health resources for the Rio Grande Valley region. The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley's psychology and counseling programs supply clinical training to a region that remains significantly underserved relative to its mental health needs.
