Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Living with intense emotions can feel exhausting. You may experience overwhelming fears of abandonment, difficulty trusting others, rapid shifts in emotions, relationship struggles, or a constant fear of being left, rejected, or misunderstood.
Many people feel ashamed of these experiences or believe something is wrong with them.
In reality, these patterns often make sense in the context of attachment wounds, relational trauma, and painful life experiences.
Together, we'll work to better understand these patterns, strengthen emotional regulation, improve relationships, and help you feel more stable, secure, and connected.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Borderline Personality Disorder is an illness that makes emotions difficult to manage. One may have difficulty relating to others, coping with stress, reckless behavior, strong feelings of isolation and abandonment, and challenges understanding other people’s points of view. BPD is sometimes also called Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (EUPD) as the name is more descriptive to the actual condition.
BPD commonly presents in adolescence or early adulthood with intense moods, suicidal thoughts, addictive behaviors, inability to maintain jobs and relationships, and paranoid thoughts. Because of the extreme mood swings, BPD is frequently misdiagnosed as Bipolar Disorder, however, the mood changes with BPD are typically much shorter in overall duration.
Treatment is typically a combination of psychotherapies including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness. There are no medications specifically to treat BPD but there are support groups that can help when struggling to cope with these significant emotions. People living with BPD are able to improve their lives with the help of therapy and other kinds of support.

Jeni Gutke
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC
We offer a DBT group virtually for adolescence and adults to learn, interpersonal communication as well as emotional regulation and skills that allow mindfulness incorporated into daily habits. This can help calm the mind with black-and-white thinking, and instead give the ability to self regulate and manage emotions and create healthy boundaries, the goal is having healthy relationships, starting with compassion and love for ourselves.

Glendale is a large Phoenix suburb best known as home to State Farm Stadium and Desert Diamond Arena — a sports and entertainment venue-driven city that coexists with significant working-class and Hispanic communities in its western districts. The city has a large Latino population concentrated in areas like Catlin Court and west Glendale, creating meaningful demand for Spanish-speaking and culturally affirming therapists alongside the more affluent residential communities to the north. Banner Thunderbird Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, with the broader Phoenix metro therapy ecosystem accessible to residents across the city. Glendale's blend of entertainment-sector workers, suburban families, and working-class communities creates diverse therapy demand that practitioners navigate across a wide range of presentations.
