Laura DeAngelo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
I trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy first as a DBT Clinical Intern and then as a DBT Therapist for five years at the Center for Human Development in West Springfield, MA, before going into private practice. I received training through Marsha Linehan's Behavioral Tech Institute and I use her book DBT Skills Training Handouts and Worksheets (second or third edition) extensively with clients experiencing emotional and behavioral dysregulation due to borderline personality disorder or borderline traits. I am also training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) at the advanced level, which is effective in working through emotions from traumatic childhood memories often associated with BPD.

Michelle Hoffman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Learning how to effectively parent a teenager who is displaying borderline tendencies can be counterintuitive. My goal is to support parents in understanding the 'whys' behind the behavior and how to respond in a way that meets their child's need while maintaining their family values. Please note: while I use DBT techniques, I am not a trained DBT practitioner.

Individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) require therapy integral to their treatment. BPD is a complex and challenging mental health disorder characterized by intense and unstable emotions, self-image difficulties, impulsivity, and turbulent relationships. The purpose of therapy is to assist individuals in managing their feelings, enhancing their coping abilities, and developing healthier relationships with themselves and others.
The therapeutic approach selected for BPD can vary depending on the individual's specific requirements, severity of symptoms, and treatment objectives. The multifaceted nature of BPD is frequently treated with a combination of therapies and methods.
Therapy for BPD is frequently long-term, and the therapeutic relationship between the patient and therapist is essential for treatment success. Individuals with BPD must engage with mental health professionals with experience and knowledge in treating this complex disorder. Suppose you or someone you know is struggling with BPD. In that case, seeking assistance from a qualified mental health professional is recommended to develop an individualized, comprehensive treatment plan.
