Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, or struggle to keep close relationships, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats relationship and interpersonal issues typically using Functional Analytic Psychotherapy and/or Assertiveness Training. These approaches combine new insights with new skills so you can be more effective in your relationships and re-build damaged relationships.

Having experience working in a male prison setting, I have encountered several types of personality disorders and truly believe that individuals do not have to be defined by their diagnosis or mental health issues.

Stephanie Ennen
Therapist, LPC,LCPC, LMHC
I specialize in providing therapeutic support for individuals with personality disorders. I understand that these conditions can profoundly impact relationships, self-image, and daily functioning. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to meet your unique needs.
In our sessions, we will work together to explore the underlying patterns of behavior and thought that characterize your experiences. Utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I focus on building essential skills in emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. These skills can empower you to manage intense emotions and improve your relationships with others.
I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, fostering a healthier self-image and more adaptive coping strategies.
A key component of my approach is psychoeducation. By understanding your personality disorder and its effects on your life, you can gain valuable insights and tools to facilitate change. Together, we will develop personalized strategies for managing symptoms and enhancing emotional well-being.
My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express your thoughts and feelings openly. Together, we can work towards fostering self-awareness, building healthier relationships, and creating a more fulfilling life.
