Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)
If you’ve been told you’re “too much,” “too sensitive,” or “too reactive,” you’re not alone — especially if you’re living with borderline personality traits
People with borderline personality traits often experience:
Intense emotions and mood swings: Feeling like you're on an emotional rollercoaster or overwhelmed by feelings you can’t control
Relationship Instability: Push-pull dynamics, fear of abandonment, or getting stuck in painful relational patterns
Chronic Feelings of Emptiness or Identity Confusion: Not knowing who you are, what you want, or how to feel at home in yourself
Self-Harm and Suicidality: Urges to harm yourself, use substances, or escape intense emotional pain
Impulsivity and Shame: Acting in emotion-driven ways that feel out of control, followed by deep regret or self-blame
Trauma Histories and High Sensitivity: Early life experiences that shaped how you relate to emotions, people, and yourself
These patterns can be difficult to navigate. We will approach this work with warmth, structure, and respect - because healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone
Healing is possible — even if it hasn’t felt that way before
I take a compassionate, skills-based approach that helps clients:
Understand emotional patterns
I help clients identify what drives intense feelings, rapid mood shifts, or sensitivity to rejection, and connect these patterns to past experiences, relationships, and nervous system responses.
Increase effective coping mechanisms
Developing and strengthening practical tools to in moments of distress increases clients’ sense of control by helping reduce reliance on harmful strategies like self-harm, substance use and related impulsive behaviors, and lashing out at others.
Strengthen relationship skills
I support clients in building trust, navigating conflict, and maintaining closeness without losing their sense of self, using evidence-based tools from DBT and CBT to promote healthier relational dynamics.
Sometimes it feels nearly impossible to “keep it all together”
