Thea Integrative Therapy: Celine R. Williams
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT #155675
Borderline Personality Disorder is highly stigmatized, and at Thea Integrative Therapy, we understand that BPD is a result of severe attachment trauma, not due to some personal flaw. With this frame, Celine emphasizes the importance of modeling a securely attached relational therapeutic dynamic, in order to create space for rewiring and working through attachment triggers and mood swings. Clients with BPD can feel empowered to identify their triggers, responses, and manage their reactions, in order to create an affirming and secure relationship with themselves. Healing BPD is very possible, and Thea Integrative Therapy is here to affirm and support you throughout your journey.

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Living with borderline personality disorder can involve intense emotions, fear of abandonment, an uncertain sense of self, and relationship patterns that feel painful or difficult to change. These struggles do not define who you are, and healing is possible with compassionate, consistent support.
Using DBT-informed and trauma-responsive care, I help clients strengthen emotional regulation, tolerate distress, communicate needs, establish healthy boundaries, and develop more stable relationships. Together, we work to replace shame and reactivity with self-understanding, inner security, and healthier ways of responding to life’s challenges.
