BPD
Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Borderline personality disorder can affect emotions, relationships, self-esteem, identity, trust, and your sense of stability. You may experience intense emotions, fear of abandonment, impulsivity, anger, emptiness, or rapid shifts in how you feel about yourself and other people. My approach is warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental. I do not believe people should be reduced to a label. I am interested in understanding your inner world, your experiences, your relationships, and the patterns that may have developed in response to difficult life experiences or unmet emotional needs. Although diagnoses can sometimes feel validating because they explain experiences that have felt confusing or overwhelming, I think it is important not to identify too strongly with labels in ways that can feel limiting or self-defining. What matters most is understanding yourself more deeply and building a stronger, more stable sense of who you are.

Valentina Olper
Therapist, MSc
Rather than pathologising your intensity, I offer a secure container to ground your insights. We work on the sacred art of integration—bringing awareness to the past so you can navigate the present with a sense of honouring your emotions as a source of strength, not a storm.

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
You are not “too much”—you’ve just carried too much for too long.
If you live with intense emotions, fear of abandonment, or feel like you’re constantly swinging between extremes, you’re not broken—you’re doing your best to survive with a system that’s been deeply overwhelmed. I specialize in working with people who’ve been labeled with BPD and help them understand their internal world with more compassion and clarity. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently connect with the parts of you that protect, react, and long for love—so healing can happen at the root. You don’t have to keep living in chaos or self-blame. There is a path toward stability, connection, and a deeper sense of Self.

I offer treatment for borderline personality disorder (B.P.D.) which involves a comprehensive relational psychotherapeutic service on a one-to-one basis in a safe and supportive setting. In all instances, the aim is always to contribute to the provision of day-to-day support, whilst fomenting the greatest possible sense of self-empowerment and independence in the client.
35 Years Experience

Southampton's identity as a major port city — historically the departure point for the Titanic and still a global cruise and cargo hub — shapes a culture tied to maritime industry and international movement, with therapists frequently encountering the particular stresses of seafarer families, shift work, and the psychological demands of port logistics careers. The city has two major universities — the University of Southampton and Solent University — creating significant student mental health demand alongside a substantial research and professional community. Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the Shirley, Portswood, and Bitterne areas. Southampton's significant communities from South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Eastern Europe drive growing demand for culturally competent and multilingual practitioners.
