BPD
Allyse Teltser
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most misunderstood and underserved diagnoses in mental health - and one of the most treatable. If you or your teen has been diagnosed with BPD, or if you recognize the patterns of intense emotions, unstable relationships, fear of abandonment, and impulsive behavior, you are not beyond help. Dialectical Behavior Therapy was developed specifically for BPD and has decades of research supporting its effectiveness. I am intensively trained in DBT and have specific experience working with clients managing BPD across its full range of severity.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Borderline Personality Disorder often reflects deep attachment wounds and intense fears of abandonment. My approach combines IFS, attachment and family systems work, and DBT-informed skills for emotion regulation and relationship repair. I also integrate psychodynamic and narrative therapies to uncover the stories beneath shame and reactivity. When needed, I work closely with prescribers to manage co-occurring symptoms, and I provide careful diagnostic clarification to distinguish BPD from trauma or bipolar presentations.

Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder can feel like riding an emotional rollercoaster — intense feelings, fears of abandonment, and relationships that swing between closeness and conflict. Many of my clients grew up in environments where love felt unpredictable, leaving them desperate for connection yet afraid of being hurt. In therapy, I offer a steady, non-judgmental space to explore these patterns, understand where they come from, and build healthier ways of relating. Over time, you can feel more grounded, trust your emotions, and experience relationships that feel safer and more stable.

Dr. John E. N. Daniel
Marriage and Family Therapist, EdD; EdS; MA; MA; LCMFT#0404011018; BCCLC#0131
In my practice, some clients have, at times, demonstrated tendencies indicative of schizophrenic psychosis with short-lived episodes in which they lose touch with reality. These clients I immediately refer for psychiatric evaluation. In my estimation, because borderline personality disorder is difficult to diagnose, I am careful not attempt to arrive at any diagnosis in under five sessions.
