Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Personality disorders often involve long-standing patterns that impact emotions, relationships, self-image, and coping. While these patterns may feel deeply ingrained, growth and change are possible. Therapy can help increase self-awareness, improve emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and create healthier ways of navigating life's challenges while honoring your unique experiences and strengths.

Mary W. Prentiss
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for clients experiencing longstanding patterns that affect emotions, relationships, self-image, or coping. Therapy can focus on developing greater emotional awareness, improving relationships, strengthening coping skills, and understanding patterns that may have developed over time.
I believe people are more than a diagnosis. My goal is to understand the whole person and work collaboratively toward greater stability, self-understanding, and healthier relationships.

Together, we work toward stability, self-awareness, and the tools needed to create meaningful and lasting change.

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.
