Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can involve intense emotions, difficulties with relationships, fear of abandonment, impulsive behaviors, and challenges with self-image or emotional regulation. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients can better understand their emotions, identify patterns, and develop healthier ways of responding to difficult situations. Counseling focuses on building emotional regulation, distress-tolerance skills, communication, self-awareness, healthier relationships, and greater confidence in managing life’s challenges. We recognize the strengths, resilience, and unique experiences each person brings to therapy and work collaboratively to establish practical goals for meaningful change. For clients who desire it, Christian faith and spiritual principles can also be incorporated to support hope, identity, healing, forgiveness, and personal growth. You are more than a diagnosis, and with the right support and tools, healthier relationships, greater emotional stability, and meaningful growth are possible.

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.
