Borderline Personality Disorder
Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Borderline Personality Disorder is a psychiatric diagnosis that typically describes a set of difficult, often disturbing experiences that a person has in relation to themselves and others. Difficulties coping with one's own emotions - often powerful and overwhelming; a lack of internal and external stability; destructive behaviours - these are some of the common problems that people who meet criteria for BPD often face.
In more recent years this condition has also been referred to as "complex post-traumatic stress disorder", thus acknowledging the wide range of life adversities faced by those considered to have BPD - for example early life abuse and neglect.
In my experience, and according to many clinical guidelines, individual therapy alone is often not sufficient to support people who have borderline personality disorder. Group interventions, alongside individual and multi-disciplinary support might be a recommended approach to treatment. One size does not fit all, however, and depending on individual presentation and circumstances, one-to-one psychotherapy might be an option to explore in some cases. If you think this might be the case for you, please get in touch so that we can explore this further together.

Dr Ian Anderson
Psychologist, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered), PhD, MSc, MSc, MSc, MA (Econ), BA (Econ) Hons
I specialize in all forms of personality disorder, but I always emphasize the difference between disordered personality traits and a full-blown personality disorder. The main feature of Borderline personality disorder is that in order to repair the fractured sense of self an individual adopts a reality that is somewhat different than that experienced by others: the goal of therapy is to reintegrate the individual's experienced reality with others.

Dr Grenville Major
Therapist, MBchB, MRCpsych, MSc psychological therapies
There is little evidence for medication being effect in this condition but psychotherapy on the other hand has been demonstrated to be helpful. I would like to meet with you to see what can be done to help you. This will enable us to get to know each other and see if we can work together. It’s important for you to work with someone you trust and feel safe with.

Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
I specialize in working with people with diagnoses of Personality Disorders - who have experiences of themselves struggling with conflict in relationships, feeling extremes of emotion which they find hard to tolerate, and find themselves in repeated patterns of struggle without understanding why.
