Personality Disorders
Stella Ihesiaba
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Personality-related challenges can affect emotional regulation, relationships, self-image, and responses to stress. I approach these concerns without judgment, focusing on understanding individual experiences, improving coping skills, and developing a collaborative treatment plan that supports healthier patterns and emotional stability.

Personality Disorders
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
The word disorder is misleading. What gets called a personality disorder is almost always a self that organized itself brilliantly around conditions that demanded it — conditions that were often unbearable. The rigidity, the intensity, the patterns that keep producing the same crises: these are not defects. They are architecture. And architecture can be understood, respected, and — slowly, from the inside — redesigned. This work is long. It requires a relationship that can withstand what the person brings into the room. That is the point.

Personality Disorders
Avery Wageman Passion Flower Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Living with traits or patterns associated with personality disorders can affect how you see yourself, relate to others, and manage emotions, often leading to challenges in relationships, self-esteem, and emotional regulation. You may experience intense emotions, fear of abandonment, difficulty with boundaries, or patterns that feel hard to change on your own.
Avery provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can better understand these patterns and how they impact your life. Using a compassionate, skills-based approach, she helps clients build emotional awareness, strengthen coping strategies, improve relationship patterns, and develop greater stability and self-understanding. The focus is on supporting meaningful change at a pace that feels safe, grounded, and collaborative.

Personality Disorders
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.
