Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
When the emotional pain becomes unbearable, getting through the next few minutes can be all you can think about. With BPD, emotions can shift quickly and become hard to come down from. The emptiness or self-hatred can be hard to live with too, and self-harm or suicidal thoughts can start to feel like a way out of the pain. I've worked with BPD and severe emotional distress in crisis services, hospitals and addiction treatment. Therapy focuses on helping you get through those moments without turning against yourself, while changing how much of your life is organized around the next crisis.
