BPD
Mary Mikhail
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BSW, MACP, RSW
Living with borderline personality disorder (BPD) can involve intense emotions, painful relationship patterns, impulsive urges, or difficulty feeling grounded in who you are. These experiences can feel overwhelming, but they don’t define you—and you deserve support that meets you with respect rather than judgment. Everyone’s experience of BPD is different, so therapy should reflect what you’re going through and what you want to work toward.
I draw on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), which combines acceptance with a focus on change. Together, we can build practical skills for managing intense emotions, getting through moments of distress, and communicating your needs in relationships. We can also explore patterns and past experiences that may be connected to your current challenges, so our work can address both what’s difficult right now and what may be keeping these patterns going. We’ll move at a pace that feels manageable and focus on goals that matter to you.
