Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LCAC, LPC, LPCC
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I offer a unique and compassionate approach to treating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) through psychodynamic therapy. My practice is enriched with techniques from Gestalt therapy, mindfulness, and experiential methods, creating a safe and empathetic space for clients to explore their emotional experiences deeply.
My therapy focuses on fostering emotional regulation, enhancing interpersonal relationships, and nurturing a stronger sense of self. By delving into the unconscious processes that influence thoughts and behaviors, I help clients uncover and address the root causes of their struggles with BPD. This approach allows for a deeper understanding and healing of the complex issues related to attachment and identity.
What sets my practice apart is my commitment to genuine therapeutic connection and present-moment awareness. By integrating these elements, I guide you toward lasting emotional stability and a more fulfilling life. Together, we will transform the challenges of BPD into opportunities for profound personal growth and resilience, empowering you to thrive beyond the confines of the disorder.
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, you will find a dedicated partner in your journey toward a balanced and empowered self, equipped with the tools and insights needed for lasting transformation.

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.

Alice Bernstein
Psychologist, PhD.
I think of this diagnosis as an attempt to describe a multiplicity of problems in self concept, mood regulation, and interpersonal relationships. All of these areas will require attention in long term treatment. I am conversant with a variety of approaches to this complex state, including the mentalization and transference focused psychodynamic approaches as well as DBT.
