Programs for Personality Disorder

The Phoenix Recovery Center

Personality Disorder Treatment Center in Salt Lake City, UT

Everyone has a personality, or a specific way of thinking and acting. However, in some cases, a person’s personality may become extreme and inflexible, which can be disruptive to a person’s life and make it difficult for them to live and work with other people who don’t share the same thoughts and behaviors. 

This is a group of mental health conditions called personality disorders. According to the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), between 9% to 15% of adults in the U.S. live with at least one personality disorder. 

At The Phoenix Recovery Center (TPRC) at 489 W South Jordan Pkwy, Ste 400, South Jordan, UT 84095, we offer individualized treatment programs for mental health disorders, including treatment specifically for personality disorders, for the  broader Wasatch Front and Utah Valley.

Our personality disorder counseling focuses on treating the whole person through a full continuum of care. The TPRC step-down model includes:

Through TPRC’s step-down model of care, your loved one’s mental health care team can better evaluate their progress and provide totally personalized care to help them be as successful as possible. And by stepping down gradually, they have the chance to slowly reintegrate into their normal life with all the valuable coping skills they’ve learned, helping to lower their risk for relapse.

What Is a Personality Disorder?

A personality disorder is a mental health condition where a person’s behaviors, attitudes, thoughts, and ability to communicate, or personality, makes it difficult for them to interact with other people and during their daily life. 

There are 10 recognized types of personality disorders, which are clustered into three different categories.

Cluster A 

Personality disorders in Cluster A are considered to have odd or eccentric behaviors or thoughts. These types of personality disorders include: 

  • Paranoid personality disorder
  • Schizoid personality disorder
  • Schizotypal personality disorder

Cluster B

Cluster B personality disorders involve dramatic, overly emotional, or unpredictable actions. These types of personality disorders include:

  • Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD)
  • Borderline personality disorder (BPD)
  • Histrionic personality disorder
  • Narcissistic personality disorder

Cluster C

Personality disorders in Cluster C include thoughts and actions revolving around fear and anxiety. These types of personality disorders include: 

  • Avoidant personality disorder
  • Dependent personality disorder
  • Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD)

Personality Disorder Symptoms

Because each personality disorder is different, each has its own set of specific symptoms. 

However, there are a few general symptoms that most people with a personality disorder show: 

  • Constant trouble making and keeping relationships
  • Distorted thinking about themselves or those around them
  • Extreme mood swings
  • Very impulsive or risky behavior

Treatment for Personality Disorders at TPRC

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment when it comes to personality disorders, but it is treatable through the right programs at a personality disorder treatment center. 

At the Phoenix Recovery Center (TPRC), our personality disorder treatment programs focus on the use of psychotherapy, where those living with a personality disorder have the opportunity to learn more about the condition, feel safe to talk about their experiences, thoughts, and feelings, and learn tools to help them improve their quality of life. 

Types of psychotherapy TPRC uses include: 

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
  • Group therapy
  • Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT)
  • Psychodynamic/Transference-Focused Therapy

TPRC also specializes in dual diagnosis where there’s a co-occurring mental health disorder or substance abuse, which may be helping to cause or exacerbate your personality disorder. This means you’ll receive treatment for both issues at the same time for the most well-rounded treatment possible.

How Can You Tell if You Have a Personality Disorder?

Only a mental health professional at a personality disorder treatment center can diagnose you with a personality disorder. However, if you constantly have trouble making and keeping relationships, experience extreme mood swings, have very impulsive behaviors, and/or have unhealthy thoughts about yourself and those around you, then you may need personality disorder counseling. 

Can You Have Multiple Personality Disorders?

Yes, you can have more than one personality disorder at the same time. This is known as a dual diagnosis or co-occurring mental health condition. The personality disorder treatment program at The Phoenix Recovery Center (TPRC) specializes in helping people with a dual diagnosis by treating both issues at the same time.

The Phoenix Recovery Center Recovery Experience

Phoenix Recovery Experience

Our personality disorder counseling includes a full continuum of care, including Residential Treatment for personality disorders, as well our Daytime Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP, and General Outpatient Program (GOP). 

Our staff includes a full-time onsite medical director and contracted psychiatrist, as well as:

  • Associate clinical mental health counselors
  • Associate marriage and family therapists
  • Certified social workers
  • Licensed clinical social workers
  • Substance use disorder counselors

Patients and families who engage in The Phoenix recovery experience through our continuum of care learn and develop both recovery and disease management skills. 

Moreover, patients and family members begin to identify, define, and achieve stability in their pursuit of a meaningful life. As a result, self-confidence embodies the emotional and cognitive condition of our patients and family members. 

Patients and their family members enjoy relationships that begin to be healed. They also celebrate the fact that dreams are being redefined through realistic applied behaviors that are motivated by meaning pursuits supported by recovery based support systems.

Human connection is a very important part of living a full life, and having a personality disorder makes this extremely difficult to do. Those living with a personality disorder face constant stress, anxiety, and confusion, as well as an overall feeling of loneliness, disconnection, and rejection. 

TPRC offers both a full continuum of care and dual diagnosis treatment to help you or your loved one get the help they need for their personality disorder to live a better and healthier life.

The staff at The Phoenix Recovery Center is passionate about total behavioral health in overcoming addiction. They deeply care about each person who they work with.
