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.

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.

Gina Majestro
Psychologist, PsyD, HSP, HSPP
Sometimes it feels like you’re doing everything “right,” but inside, it’s chaos — emotions feel too big, relationships feel uncertain, and you’re just exhausted from trying to hold it all together. You might feel like you’re too much one moment and not enough the next. Maybe you’ve carried deep pain for years, and you’re just ready for something to finally shift.
I work with adults who live with the intensity, sensitivity, and strength that often come with BPD. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful of your experience. Together, we’ll explore the protective parts and patterns that helped you survive — and build new ways of feeling grounded, connected, and worthy of stability and care.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. Healing is possible, even if you’ve tried before and nothing seemed to work.
I offer in person therapy in Louisville, KY and virtual therapy for adults in Kentucky, Indiana, and across 42 PSYPACT states.
If you’re ready to move from surviving to truly living, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
