Maryam, Abro
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, MC
I support clients with Borderline Personality Disorder by focusing on building emotional regulation, self-awareness, and healthier relationships. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I help clients balance acceptance with change, develop skills to manage intense emotions, and improve interpersonal effectiveness. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Schema Therapy are used to challenge unhelpful thought patterns and build a stronger sense of self. My goal is to empower clients to create lasting change and build a life worth living.

Zonaira Chaudhry
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist MSW, RSW
Living with intense emotions, relationship challenges, or identity struggles? As a BPD specialist trained in DBT, I understand that your experiences are valid responses to life circumstances. I work comprehensively across all areas of dysregulation - emotional, behavioral, interpersonal, and identity - while recognizing how these interconnect in your daily life.
My approach is holistic, often including family and loved ones to create an environment that supports your growth. While emotions may always be intense, together we'll build practical skills to navigate them effectively and create more stability in your life.
In our work, you'll find an accepting, judgment-free space where your experiences are normalized and understood.
