Is standard psychotherapy not feeling like enough, or are you interested in doing deeper work? Curious about the use of psychedelics? Often our ego defenses do not allow us to access difficult emotions and memories, which becomes a barrier to healing. Research has found that using psychedelics and altered states of consciousness in tandem with therapy allows individuals to heal from a range of emotional difficulties. As a clinical psychologist specializing in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, integration, and hard reduction, I am here to help support you throughout your healing journey with an open heart and mind.

Therapy is sometimes viewed as an intimidating endeavor. The ability to take that first step often provides an immediate sense of relief. What happens after that depends on the therapeutic alliance as well as the goals of treatment. If you are suffering from a mood or personality disorder, substance dependence/addiction or the challenges associated with aging, you may be feeling overwhelmed by the uncertainty of the world around you. Likewise, if you are coping with a dysfunctional relationship or job/personal life dissatisfaction, now may be the time to take a closer look at effecting positive change in your life.

Life can be painful, relationships can be disappointing, and self-sabotage can be your barrier to achieving your full potential. Real change is possible, but not easy. It happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you have power to change instead of trying to exercise control over what you don't. I assist clients by helping them identify the specific maladaptive thoughts and behaviors ingrained in each of us from our pasts and which can sabotage our futures. Working together clients can gain self-awareness, identify core values and create goals changing their life direction.

There is enormous opportunity to improve your life by understanding how the past has affected your current perceptions, thoughts, feelings, and actions. If you're feeling anxious or depressed, struggling in your relationships, or finding that your life, which appears to be okay from the outside, has left you unfulfilled, know that you can move past the pain, frustration, lack of direction, self-doubt. Beginning therapy can be daunting but immensely rewarding. There is no reason to settle for mediocrity or pain. However hard it might be to imagine now, post-traumatic growth is truly possible.

Personality Disorders Therapists

What are the common treatment options for personality disorders?

Personality disorders are typically treated with psychotherapy, sometimes in conjunction with medication. Therapy can help people with personality disorders develop skills to tolerate difficult emotions, navigate interpersonal relationships, and solidify their sense of self. Medications can treat symptoms that co-occur with the disorder, such as depression, anger, aggression, and impulsivity.

When to seek treatment for personality disorders?

Even though treatment for personality disorders can be an uphill battle, it’s best to seek help if you suspect that you or a loved one is struggling with one, because personality disorders can create substantial problems in life. Symptoms depend on the specific disorder, but overall signs of personality disorders include consistent difficulty maintaining close relationships, dramatic variations in self-esteem, and an unstable sense of identity.

How long does therapy take for personality disorders?

The timeline for treating personality disorders isn’t as clear-cut as it is for other disorders. Change can be difficult, taking from around one year to five, 10, or more. The key is finding a therapist who has extensive experience treating the relevant disorder. For example, a psychologist who specializes in narcissistic personality disorder has specific communication strategies that allow them to sustain the relationship and be more effective with narcissistic patients.

Can therapy help people with personality disorders?

Research suggests that for those who are motivated to address concerns or interpersonal conflict related to a personality disorder, therapy is far more effective than no treatment, and that most people in therapy see improvements. However, since personality disorders involve entrenched elements of identity, they are less responsive to treatment than are other mental health conditions. Finding an expert who has extensive experience working with a given personality disorder is one factor that increases the likelihood of successful treatment.
