Therapy Issues

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

Are you struggling with the effects of Borderline Personality Disorder?

Right now, as a result of Borderline Personality Disorder, you may be experiencing:

 

  • Intense emotional swings that feel overwhelming and uncontrollable
  • A deep fear of abandonment that affects all your relationships
  • Uncertainty about who you really are and what you want from life
  • Impulsive behaviors that provide temporary relief but long-term problems
  • Intense anger that seems to come out of nowhere and is difficult to manage
  • Feelings of emptiness and disconnection from yourself and others

You're realizing that your BPD is getting in the way of your life:

  • Your relationships are volatile with extreme ups and downs
  • You push people away when you need them most because you’re afraid they’ll leave first
  • Your emotional reactions seem disproportionate, even to you
  • You engage in self-destructive behaviors to cope with emotional pain
  • You struggle to maintain stability in work, relationships, and daily functioning

You’re wondering…

  • Is this just who I am, or can I change these patterns?
  • Why do I feel things so intensely when others seem to manage their emotions easily?
  • Will I ever have stable relationships without the fear and drama?
  • Is medication necessary, or are there other approaches?
  • How is trauma connected to what I’m experiencing?

You’re longing for…

  • Emotional stability and the ability to self-regulate without extreme measures
  • Healthy relationships where you feel secure without constant reassurance
  • A clear sense of who you are and what matters to you
  • Skills to manage distress without resorting to harmful behaviors
  • Understanding the connection between your past experiences and current struggles
  • Freedom from the shame that comes with this diagnosis

How we can help you.

At our trauma-informed therapy center, we understand that BPD often develops as an adaptation to complex trauma. Our therapists are trained in evidence-based approaches specifically designed for BPD, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Schema Therapy, integrated with trauma-informed care. We focus on building skills for emotional regulation while processing underlying traumatic experiences that contribute to your symptoms.

What you’re longing for is possible.
