Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It has been said that when you have Borderline Personality disorder (BPD), its hard to tell where your emotions end and your loved ones emotions start. In BPD, I look to my loved one to validate me, to tell me I am okay because my own sense of self worth is so fragile or non-existent. If a loved one gets mad at me or has negative emotions I go into an emotional spiral that is crazy making because I end up in an identity crisis. If you can relate to this, give us a call, we would like to help you.

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.

San Jose sits at the heart of Silicon Valley, where the pressures of the tech industry — performance anxiety, imposter syndrome, and the psychological cost of relentless innovation culture — drive significant demand for therapists experienced in high-achievement environments. The city's large South Asian and East Asian communities mean culturally competent therapists who understand the intersection of immigrant identity, family expectations, and mental health are particularly sought after. Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing independent therapy community. Many South Bay therapists offer evening and weekend hours to accommodate the demanding work schedules common in the tech sector.
