BPD
Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I support individuals diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) through evidence-based treatments designed to stabilize emotions and improve interpersonal relationships. One of the most effective therapies for BPD is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices. DBT helps individuals develop skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. This helps reduce self-destructive behaviors and enhances overall wellbeing. Additionally, I incorporate Schema Therapy that can help address deeply ingrained patterns of thinking and behavior by helping individuals understand and change maladaptive schemas developed from past experiences. By utilizing these evidence-based approaches, I aim to provide a structured and supportive environment where individuals with BPD can work towards greater emotional stability, helathier relationships and improved quality of life.

BPD
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.
