Borderline Personality Disorder
Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
For people with a borderline personality structure, emotions can feel overwhelming and confusing and relationships intense and frustrating. making it hard to find relief. This experience can be compounded by stigma experienced from the label of "borderline personality disorder" and ineffectual treatments that fail to address the issues causing those distressing symptoms in the first place.
I approach the treatment of borderline personality from a psychodynamic perspective. I incorporate the best evidence available for improving emotion regulation and relationship stability and satisfaction. We work together to develop a trusting working relationship that feels safe enough to explore the psychological causes of your symptoms. As you do the hard work of inner exploration with me, you’ll discover new ways to express your feelings and get your needs met, leading to a more manageable life.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating Borderline Personality Disorder for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. I use a skills-based treatment called Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to focus on teaching my clients techniques in the areas of emotion regulation, relationships, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. Please note that I offer a modified version of this therapy that includes individual therapy only. A full program in DBT typically includes both individual therapy and group therapy which may be a more appropriate fit for you. You and I can discuss which option is the best for your needs.
