Emily Bennings
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Borderline Personality Disorder is misunderstood. The latest research suggests that it is a disorder of trauma, and not truly a personality disorder. Many clinicians use the diagnosis of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as another lens to help understand the complexities of the emotional dysregulation and instability that is associated with BPD.
