John D. Gartner
Psychologist, Ph.D.
BPD is very treatable, but it's important to see a specialist.
I began my practice after completing a post-doctoral fellowship in Treatment of Borderline Disorder at New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center, using the methods pioneered Dr. Otto Kernberg. For the last 5 years, I've integrated some aspects of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into my practice, especially mindfulness meditation.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a very treatable condition. However, it can be misdiagnosed for other disorders, and this can delay treatment gains. Following a thorough evaluation to establish BPD, I use one of three forms of contemporary psychodynamic therapy (i.e., Transference-Focused psychotherapy, Mentalization-Based Treatment, or Supportive Therapy) alone or in combination. All of these therapies have been tested in clinical trials. I have published professional works (e.g., articles; a book) on psychodynamic therapy. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.

Laura Goldstein
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCMFT
DBT is an evidence-based treatment model originally created to treat Borderline Personality Disorder. Now, research shows DBT can be effective for a wide range of other presentations and symptoms that are rooted in emotions. Dialectical behavior therapy, is a perfect treatment for people who are:
more sensitive to emotions
more reactive to emotions
have a slower return to baseline
If any of these things sound familiar for you or your loved one then DBT is probably the answer!

Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
BPD is a complex but treatable personality style that involves high levels of emotional reactivity, difficulty at times managing those feelings, a pervasive sense of often feeling abandoned and misunderstood as well as a number of other features that can differ from person to person, but typically leave the individual sometimes feeling alone, angry, desperate or confused. I am well trained in both the short term and the long term psychodynamic and psychoanalytic treatment of BPD. It is is associated with a trauma history and both BPD and trauma are my areas of expertise.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my practice, I often integrate aspects of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) manage their emotions and improve interpersonal relationships. Additionally, I utilize elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients develop mindfulness skills, increase psychological flexibility, and align their actions with their values, fostering a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Lastly, incorporating Narrative Therapy techniques, clients explore their life experiences and challenges from a contextual standpoint, empowering them to reconstruct their self-narrative and find new meaning in their journey towards healing and self-discovery.

Daniel McNulty
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
In my approach to treating borderline personality disorder, I integrate elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to address emotional dysregulation and interpersonal challenges. Additionally, I utilize Attachment-based techniques to explore early relational patterns and attachment wounds that may contribute to the development of borderline personality traits. By incorporating Trauma Focused interventions and Mindfulness-Based approaches, I help clients process past traumas and develop healthier coping strategies, fostering greater self-awareness and emotional stability in managing their symptoms.
