TREAMENT FOR PERSONALITY DISORDERS

Personality disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by enduring patterns of thoughts and behavior that deviate from societal expectations, causing significant distress and/or impairment in various areas of life. Patterns associated with personality disorders usually emerge in early adulthood and persist over time.

There are several types of personality disorders, and we believe that determining the correct diagnosis is critical, as it allows our team of experienced mental health professionals – including psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and nurses – to formulate the most effective treatment plan.

Our Approach for Treating Personality Disorders

Our approach to treating personality disorders involves a combination of psychotherapy, medication when necessary, and a person-centered, holistic approach. We focus on understanding the underlying causes and patterns of dysfunctional behaviors, promoting self-awareness, and helping patients develop healthier coping mechanisms and adaptive interpersonal skills to improve their overall well-being and functioning.

Comprehensive Assessment & Diagnosis

Our team assesses the individual’s symptoms, history, and unique challenges. This assessment includes psychological testing, clinical interviews, and collaboration with the individual’s support system to gain a complete understanding of their needs.

Integrated Treatment Modalities

At Enterhealth, we combine a range of evidence-based treatment modalities to provide a comprehensive approach to healing personality disorders including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Group Therapy. Participating in group therapy sessions provides a supportive community where individuals can share experiences, gain peer support, and learn from others.

Medication Evaluation & Management

While there are no medications specifically designed to treat personality disorders, there are certain psychiatric medicines that may be helpful for some individuals. Our skilled psychiatrists conduct thorough evaluations to determine the appropriateness of various medications.

Education & Lifestyle Changes

Many of the issues people with personality disorders face are the result of the difficulty that their behavior causes in others and includes things like anxiety, depression, and social isolation. Education about the nature of their condition, as well as certain lifestyle modifications to reduce the symptoms associated with it, can be highly beneficial.
