Personality Disorders therapists in Woodbridge, Virginia VA

In a secure atmosphere of trust & confidentiality, I help patients understand the obstacles interfering with reaching their potential & use those insights to enhance personal growth, self esteem, and fulfillment in life.  

Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Are your life and relationships unfulfilling? Can't let go of past hurts? Using sex or the internet to avoid others or painful emotions? Nothing gets better no matter what you try? Maybe it's time for a change!  

I have experience using DBT to help individuals with personality disorders help themselves with emotion regulation in order to maintain strong, healthy relationships with others and to rise their quality of life.  

Personality disorders often stem from a traumatic event or series of traumatic events, where the individual has learned to adapt to survive. Finding the core of these behaviors, will help to address some of the maladaptive behaviors, and learn to move forward in a healthy way.  

I treat Narcissism as well as the survivors of narcissistic abuse. The effects of narcissism often manifest within individuals' relationships (romantic, professional, academic, etc.). Chronic anger, perfectionism, shame-proneness, rejection-sensitivity, haughtiness/snobbery, feeling consistently unappreciated and not concerning oneself with others' feelings are just a few indications that narcissism may be effecting your life. Contrary to popular belief, narcissism is treatable. If you or someone you know is coping with consequences related to narcissism/narcissistic abuse, contact me to begin treatment.
