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.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 104395, LPCC 4889
I have extensive experience working with individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder. I use a client-centered approach to tailor interventions to fit my clients' needs. I particularly like using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and use a strong therapeutic alliance to build trust within the therapeutic relationship to decrease symptoms and problem behaviors.

Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
BPD is not something to be ashamed of - it is something to get help for. I have received advanced training in Mentalization Based Therapy (MBT), a treatment modality designed to help people with Borderline Personality Disorder. The goal of this therapy is to help people become more self-aware of their emotional reactions and more skilled at regulating anxiety.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I take an Ambivalent Attachment perspective, meaning that my view of BPD is that is a more severe expression of an Ambivalent Attachment style. In sessions, I will maintain a safe and predictable environment, supporting a space for each of us to be in charge of our own stories and emotional states. I'll be gentle in nonverbal and verbal communication, and, will model personal boundaries between and in sessions. We may incorporate EMDR or parts work into a primarily DARE approach of being with the felt-sense of connection, highlighting what feels safe and unsafe, trusting and mistrusting, predicable and chaotic. From a place of safe connection, we'll revisit the wounded parts from your past with nurturing openness and adaptability, while maintaining integrity and authenticity of your Core Self.
