Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I use a strengths-based approach when working with individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder. Although this diagnosis can be very stigmatized in our culture, I believe that people with this diagnosis often have a lot of positive qualities that can be utilized to cope with intense emotional distress and difficulty with interpersonal relationships. My approach to Borderline Personality Disorder is informed by Dialectal Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Feminist Therapy.

Laura Goldstein
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCMFT
DBT is an evidence-based treatment model originally created to treat Borderline Personality Disorder. Now, research shows DBT can be effective for a wide range of other presentations and symptoms that are rooted in emotions. Dialectical behavior therapy, is a perfect treatment for people who are:
more sensitive to emotions
more reactive to emotions
have a slower return to baseline
If any of these things sound familiar for you or your loved one then DBT is probably the answer!

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a very treatable condition. However, it can be misdiagnosed for other disorders, and this can delay treatment gains. Following a thorough evaluation to establish BPD, I use one of three forms of contemporary psychodynamic therapy (i.e., Transference-Focused psychotherapy, Mentalization-Based Treatment, or Supportive Therapy) alone or in combination. All of these therapies have been tested in clinical trials. I have published professional works (e.g., articles; a book) on psychodynamic therapy. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.
