Dr. Dana C. Avey
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MA, DBH, LMFT, BC-TMH, ADS
Borderline Personality Disorder can be best described as an emotional intensity disorder. You feel more, feel it longer, and to more extreme than those around you. You're often left feeling empty and abandoned and experience instability in your relationships. There are ways to combat this and have healthy, thriving interpersonal relationships. We can work together to achieve this. If you are a loved one of someone diagnosed with BPD or someone you suspect has BPD, I can also be of help.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating Borderline Personality Disorder for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. I use a skills-based treatment called Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to focus on teaching my clients techniques in the areas of emotion regulation, relationships, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. Please note that I offer a modified version of this therapy that includes individual therapy only. A full program in DBT typically includes both individual therapy and group therapy which may be a more appropriate fit for you. You and I can discuss which option is the best for your needs.

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.
