BPD
Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Borderline personality disorder can involve intense emotions, shifting moods, and challenges in relationships that can feel overwhelming or hard to make sense of. In our work together, we focus on creating a steady, nonjudgmental space where these experiences can be explored with care and curiosity. Over time, we’ll work toward understanding the underlying patterns, strengthening your ability to manage emotional intensity, and building more stable, fulfilling connections with yourself and others.

BPD
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.

BPD
Amanda Etienne
Psychologist, Psy.D
Living with BPD often means feeling things more intensely than the people around you, and getting the message somewhere along the way that this made you "too much." I help you build real skills for riding out intense emotions and unstable relationships without needing to white-knuckle through them alone, while also working on the deeper piece - understanding where that intensity comes from and building a stronger, steadier sense of who you are underneath it.
