Borderline Personality Disorder
Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Borderline Personality Disorder is a psychiatric diagnosis that typically describes a set of difficult, often disturbing experiences that a person has in relation to themselves and others. Difficulties coping with one's own emotions - often powerful and overwhelming; a lack of internal and external stability; destructive behaviours - these are some of the common problems that people who meet criteria for BPD often face.
In more recent years this condition has also been referred to as "complex post-traumatic stress disorder", thus acknowledging the wide range of life adversities faced by those considered to have BPD - for example early life abuse and neglect.
In my experience, and according to many clinical guidelines, individual therapy alone is often not sufficient to support people who have borderline personality disorder. Group interventions, alongside individual and multi-disciplinary support might be a recommended approach to treatment. One size does not fit all, however, and depending on individual presentation and circumstances, one-to-one psychotherapy might be an option to explore in some cases. If you think this might be the case for you, please get in touch so that we can explore this further together.

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a complex mental health disorder that is characterized by intense and unstable emotions, impulsive behavior, and unstable relationships. The most effective treatment for BPD is a form of psychotherapy called dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). DBT is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy that focuses on helping individuals learn new coping skills to manage their emotions and behaviors. Other forms of therapy that have been found to be effective in treating BPD include cognitive therapy, mentalization-based therapy, and schema-focused therapy. Medications may also be used in conjunction with therapy to help manage symptoms such as depression and anxiety. Get in touch to see if we can find the best way to support your healing.

Vast majority of Borderline assessment labels are wrong due to underlying Trauma usually C-PTSD complexities of long term trauma or neglect is at the heart. so we may help many with this diagnosis to turn it around.
