Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist in CA & NY
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
DBT posits that people are doing the best they can and if they are struggling it is because they did not learn the basic tools and skills they needed from their care takers in childhood. I enjoy teaching people tools and skills to regulate their emotions, be effective in their daily lives, and get their needs met.

Synapse Therapy and Healing | Alexis Collins, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
If you are struggling with intense emotions, unstable relationships, and a fluctuating sense of self, you don't have to face it alone. I provide dedicated telehealth services for individuals managing Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and complex relational traits.
My work is grounded in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and I bring extensive experience, including work within an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) setting. I offer a deeply non-judgmental space where we can work collaboratively to:
Heal from past pain and gain self-understanding.
Develop effective coping skills for emotional regulation.
Build a life that feels stable and meaningful.

Dr. Bernadette Hinojos
Psychologist, Psy.D
I provide affirming, trauma-informed support for individuals living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) or navigating intense emotions, relationship struggles, and identity instability. My approach to BPD, views BPD not as a fixed label, but as a response to deep emotional pain, unmet attachment needs, and often, complex trauma.
In our work together, I prioritize safety, trust, and collaboration. I integrate evidence-based practices such as DBT-informed skills, mindfulness, and emotion regulation techniques within a relational and person-centered framework. My goal is to help you build self-compassion, strengthen emotional resilience, and create more stable and fulfilling connections—without shame or judgment.
I hold space for the full intensity of your emotions and experiences, and I believe in your capacity to heal, grow, and reclaim your narrative on your own terms.
