Borderline Personality Disorder
Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Borderline Personality Disorder is a psychiatric diagnosis that typically describes a set of difficult, often disturbing experiences that a person has in relation to themselves and others. Difficulties coping with one's own emotions - often powerful and overwhelming; a lack of internal and external stability; destructive behaviours - these are some of the common problems that people who meet criteria for BPD often face.
In more recent years this condition has also been referred to as "complex post-traumatic stress disorder", thus acknowledging the wide range of life adversities faced by those considered to have BPD - for example early life abuse and neglect.
In my experience, and according to many clinical guidelines, individual therapy alone is often not sufficient to support people who have borderline personality disorder. Group interventions, alongside individual and multi-disciplinary support might be a recommended approach to treatment. One size does not fit all, however, and depending on individual presentation and circumstances, one-to-one psychotherapy might be an option to explore in some cases. If you think this might be the case for you, please get in touch so that we can explore this further together.

Vicky Mould
Counsellor/Therapist, Accredited Professional Registrant (PNCPS Acc.)
Over the years, I have supported many women with a BPD/EUPD diagnosis, yet I can also work with men. BPD/EUPD can be heavily stigmatised and judged, which can sadly prevent understanding and support from others. And whilst I hold sound knowledge of the struggles that can exist, I'll meet you as a person first and foremost, be interested in hearing how things are for you, and work to establish a relationship where you feel genuinely safe, supported and empowered - not judged, blamed or shamed. Counselling sessions are your space, yet I can be of support in exploring intense/overwhelming feelings and emotions, working through any underlying traumas, and finding new ways of relating and coping. If you'd like to explore counselling together, please get in touch with me to arrange a low-cost consultation.
