Biography

Sharon C. Ekleberry, MSW, LCSW, LSATP, is the director of the Community Services Board Transformation Initiatives in Fairfax County, Virginia. She has over 30 years of experience as a clinician, supervisor, and trainer specializing in Axis II co-occurring disorders (personality disorders and addiction).

"[I] believe that Ekleberry offers a creative, even provocative, work that remains clinically solid. This is the sort of book I would consider as a text for classes on substance abuse and on psychopathology in general. Ekleberry does such an excellent job of organization and explication that the book has merit as a work on personality disorders alone. Even if there were no mention of substance abuse, she has clearly and succinctly addressed clinical issues related to personality. In fact, most clinicians, novice or experienced, would benefit from this text."

-Dolores McCarthy in PsycCRITIQUES, February 11, 2009, Vol. 54, Release 6, Article 1
