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.

Brian McCormack (Connemara Counseling)
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A/LMHCA
I provide assessment and treatment for individuals with personality disorders, focusing on improving emotional regulation, interpersonal functioning, and self-awareness. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and schema-focused interventions, I help clients understand longstanding patterns in thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. My work emphasizes building insight, increasing flexibility, and developing healthier coping strategies, empowering clients to create more stable relationships and a stronger, more adaptive sense of self.

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.
