Borderline Personality Disorder

William Munze

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CPC, NCC

Living with borderline personality disorder (BPD) often means experiencing intense emotions and mood swings, which can make relationships and daily life challenging. People with BPD may have a deep fear of abandonment and struggle with self-image, leading to impulsive behaviors and feelings of emptiness. Despite these difficulties, many individuals with BPD can find stability and fulfillment through therapy and support. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is specifically designed to help individuals with borderline personality disorder by teaching skills in four key areas: mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Through DBT, I help clients balance acceptance and change, reduce self-destructive behaviors, and improve emotional stability. This structured approach has been shown to significantly decrease symptoms and improve overall functioning in individuals with BPD.

Joy Mental Health and Psychiatry

Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist, board-certified APRN, PMHNP-BC

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) treatment primarily relies on psychotherapy, but medication can play a supporting role. Here's a breakdown: Medication Management: No medications are specifically approved for BPD itself. However, a psychiatrist can prescribe medications to address co-occurring conditions often seen with BPD, such as anxiety, depression, or mood swings. Examples include antidepressants, mood stabilizers, or antipsychotics (in low doses). Psychiatric Evaluation: A psychiatrist will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to diagnose BPD and assess if medication can be helpful. This evaluation considers your symptoms, medical history, and potential medication interactions. Key Points: Medication is not a cure for BPD but can manage symptoms to improve overall functioning. Medications are usually prescribed cautiously due to impulsivity sometimes associated with BPD. Regular follow-up with a psychiatrist is crucial to monitor medication effectiveness and adjust dosages as needed.

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.
