Histrionic Personality Disorder Treatment
Histrionic personality disorder shapes how a person seeks attention, connection, and reassurance, often in ways that strain relationships and daily life. At Merritt Recovery, we treat this condition with steady clinical care, including cases where it appears alongside substance use, so you or your loved one gets support built on understanding rather than judgment.
Treating Histrionic Personality Disorder
Histrionic personality disorder shapes how a person seeks connection, often through intense emotion, a strong need for attention, and reactions that feel outsized to those around them. Living with it can be exhausting, both for you and for the people who love you. At Merritt Recovery, treatment starts with licensed therapy that helps you understand these patterns and build steadier ways of relating.
We provide medication management where it is clinically appropriate, along with practical coping skills you can use in daily life. When substance use occurs alongside the disorder, our integrated dual-diagnosis care addresses both conditions together, which the evidence supports as the more effective path.
Your loved one deserves care that treats them with respect. So do you.
