Meandering to Change, LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
My experience as a therapist have allowed me to support children, adolescents and adults in assisting to relieve and manage the symptoms for Borderline Personality Disorder. Often when working with those with the diagnosis Bipolar disorder, discussion involving the stigma for this particular is a major focus in the sessions and how this affects the daily life of the individual. People often are portrayed incorrectly and how the symptoms are displayed, leading to misunderstanding not only with t he individual with the diagnosis, the misunderstanding is with others who the person interacts with within their social environment. I attempt creative solutions when working with individual working from the individuals strengths and interests tailoring the therapy with the individual.

Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
For people with a borderline personality structure, emotions can feel overwhelming and confusing and relationships intense and frustrating. making it hard to find relief. This experience can be compounded by stigma experienced from the label of "borderline personality disorder" and ineffectual treatments that fail to address the issues causing those distressing symptoms in the first place.
I approach the treatment of borderline personality from a psychodynamic perspective. I incorporate the best evidence available for improving emotion regulation and relationship stability and satisfaction. We work together to develop a trusting working relationship that feels safe enough to explore the psychological causes of your symptoms. As you do the hard work of inner exploration with me, you’ll discover new ways to express your feelings and get your needs met, leading to a more manageable life.
