Psychologist serving Birmingham, MI

"Our goal is to help patients for more fulfilling lives."

Borderline and Narcissistic Personality Disorders Therapy

Borderline Personality Disorder and Narcissistic Personality Disorder are common conditions that often lead to unpleasant and chaotic lives for certain individuals and their loved ones. Contemporary psychoanalytic therapy can help improve patients’ lives, often remarkably.

Our expertise and clinical experience allow us to help patients here in Birmingham, MI, make meaningful, lasting changes in their lives.
