Borderline Personality Disorder
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Helping clients and families identify what they can change and what they can’t change is a major goal in DBT. In therapy, we help loved ones minimize their contributions to the problems (by invalidating) while also helping coach them in how to be real, transparent, and how to set their own limits.
Learning how and when to validate is a huge part of the process.

I approach the treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD) with a compassionate and integrative strategy that combines psychological expertise with Christian principles. Recognizing the emotional turmoil and interpersonal challenges associated with BPD, I incorporate biblical teachings on love, grace, and forgiveness into therapy sessions. The focus is on building a therapeutic alliance that fosters trust and a sense of security. Evidence-based therapies such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may be utilized, alongside spiritual practices like prayer and scriptural reflection to address the emotional dysregulation and relational difficulties characteristic of BPD. Encouraging clients to find strength in their faith, I aim to help individuals with BPD develop healthier coping mechanisms, manage intense emotions, and cultivate a deeper understanding of their identity in Christ. Collaboration with other mental health professionals and pastoral support may also be integrated to provide comprehensive care within the framework of Christian values.

Individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) require therapy integral to their treatment. BPD is a complex and challenging mental health disorder characterized by intense and unstable emotions, self-image difficulties, impulsivity, and turbulent relationships. The purpose of therapy is to assist individuals in managing their feelings, enhancing their coping abilities, and developing healthier relationships with themselves and others.
The therapeutic approach selected for BPD can vary depending on the individual's specific requirements, severity of symptoms, and treatment objectives. The multifaceted nature of BPD is frequently treated with a combination of therapies and methods.
Therapy for BPD is frequently long-term, and the therapeutic relationship between the patient and therapist is essential for treatment success. Individuals with BPD must engage with mental health professionals with experience and knowledge in treating this complex disorder. Suppose you or someone you know is struggling with BPD. In that case, seeking assistance from a qualified mental health professional is recommended to develop an individualized, comprehensive treatment plan.
