Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
What is often labeled as “borderline” or a "personality disorder" reflects adaptations to early relational environments that were chronically intense and inconsistent, not a defective person. Heightened emotional sensitivity and fears around closeness often develop as ways of staying connected and safe.
In therapy, we focus on understanding how these patterns show up in the present, especially in relationships that matter. Over time, this work supports greater emotional stability, depth, and a more secure sense of self rather than short-term symptom control.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Borderline Personality Disorder is generally characterized by difficulty in maintaining stable primary relationships due to unmet needs that show up as symptoms, such as being demanding or trying to control another person. People with BPD may truly desire intimacy, while at the same time, fear exposing their vulnerability and risking more pain and abandonment. If you suffer from BPD, you may be ambivalent in your relationships with others, often resulting in ongoing chaos or "drama." I can help you to uncover what lies beneath the behaviors that propel your interactions with others, and learn how to foster stable, reciprocal relationships.

Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can be a hugely mis-conceptualized disorder. Since it's root problem stems from attachment, therapy is relational. Clients learn how to develop a healthy, secure, and safe relationship with themselves and with a safe adult (therapist), sometimes for the first time. Clients learn to unpack, understand, and increase awareness to how their attachment styles impacts their emotions, their thoughts, and their behavior. Learning how to build a better foundation by restructuring certain thoughts and behaviors, while also regulating emotions, setting boundaries, and developing effective communication skills is.
