Personality disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by persistent patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that deviate significantly from cultural expectations and cause substantial distress or functional impairment. There are several types of personality disorders — including borderline personality disorder (BPD), narcissistic personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, avoidant personality disorder, and others — each with its own distinct features and challenges. At Second Chance Services LLC, we provide compassionate, evidence-based treatment for personality disorders in Maryland and Washington DC for adolescents and adults.

Living with a personality disorder can be profoundly challenging — affecting relationships, self-image, emotional regulation, and the ability to function in everyday life. Many individuals with personality disorders have faced years of misunderstanding or misdiagnosis before receiving appropriate care. At Second Chance Services, our experienced clinicians take a careful, comprehensive approach to evaluation and diagnosis — ensuring that each patient receives an accurate clinical picture and a treatment plan that truly addresses their needs.

Treatment for personality disorders typically involves a combination of psychotherapy and psychiatric support. Our outpatient services provide structured, ongoing behavioral health care that helps patients develop greater self-awareness, improve emotional regulation, build healthier relationship patterns, and reduce impulsive or harmful behaviors. Where medication is appropriate — for example, to address co-occurring symptoms such as depression, anxiety, or mood instability — our clinicians provide careful, monitored medication management as part of a broader treatment plan.

We recognize that recovery from a personality disorder is not a linear process. It requires patience, consistency, and a therapeutic relationship built on trust. At Second Chance Services LLC, we are committed to providing exactly that — a stable, compassionate, long-term care relationship that supports meaningful growth and lasting change.

Our team serves patients throughout Maryland and Washington DC, accepting Maryland Medicaid, Medicare, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare/Optum, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, Humana, Molina Healthcare, and more. Self-pay options are available for those without insurance coverage.
