Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Why do you ask?: Many people have various aspects of their personalities that are components of personality disorders. That does not mean they have a personality disorder. Do you believe that you are a person with unusual ways of thinking that others find odd? What gave you this idea? The best answer will come from an evaluation with a psychiatrist or psychologist.

Schizotypal: Extremely eccentric thought patterns that border on psychotic/bizarre, unkempt appearance, odd clothing choices, extreme discomfort with relationships, and superstitious. Anxiety and depression that arise from this disorder are about the only aspects that can be treated, speaking very generally.
