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.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I support individuals diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) through evidence-based treatments designed to stabilize emotions and improve interpersonal relationships. One of the most effective therapies for BPD is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices. DBT helps individuals develop skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. This helps reduce self-destructive behaviors and enhances overall wellbeing. Additionally, I incorporate Schema Therapy that can help address deeply ingrained patterns of thinking and behavior by helping individuals understand and change maladaptive schemas developed from past experiences. By utilizing these evidence-based approaches, I aim to provide a structured and supportive environment where individuals with BPD can work towards greater emotional stability, helathier relationships and improved quality of life.

Taj Maddox
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A. Clinical Mental Health Counseling
When emotions feel especially intense or relationships feel difficult to navigate, it can be exhausting to constantly feel like you’re trying to regain your footing. Therapy can help you better understand emotional patterns, strengthen coping skills, communicate more effectively, and build relationships that feel safer and more stable. My goal is to offer a nonjudgmental space where you can work through difficult emotions while developing a stronger sense of yourself.
