Emily Bennings
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Borderline Personality Disorder is misunderstood. The latest research suggests that it is a disorder of trauma, and not truly a personality disorder. Many clinicians use the diagnosis of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as another lens to help understand the complexities of the emotional dysregulation and instability that is associated with BPD.

Akron's identity as the 'Rubber City' — once the world capital of tire manufacturing — has given way to a post-industrial economy navigating transformation, and therapists here frequently address the long-term psychological effects of deindustrialization: economic stress, community grief, and the identity challenges of a workforce that has had to reinvent itself across generations. The city is home to the University of Akron and has a growing health sciences and polymer science sector, creating a more economically diverse population than its industrial reputation suggests. Summa Health System and Cleveland Clinic Akron General provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community concentrated in West Akron, Fairlawn, and the Highland Square neighborhood. Akron's significant Black community and the city's ongoing recovery from decades of economic decline shape a therapy culture in which community resilience and racial equity are recurring clinical themes.
