BPD
Allyse Teltser
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most misunderstood and underserved diagnoses in mental health - and one of the most treatable. If you or your teen has been diagnosed with BPD, or if you recognize the patterns of intense emotions, unstable relationships, fear of abandonment, and impulsive behavior, you are not beyond help. Dialectical Behavior Therapy was developed specifically for BPD and has decades of research supporting its effectiveness. I am intensively trained in DBT and have specific experience working with clients managing BPD across its full range of severity.

BPD
Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Having been intensively trained in DBT (the gold standard treatment for BPD), I have many years experience helping people who have been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder learn how to create a life worth living. I know most people who have been labeled as BPD are intelligent, dynamic, and talented. I can help you learn how to navigate relationships, including your relationship with yourself, so you can enjoy life again and reach your full potential.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals navigating Borderline Personality Disorder, offering a structured and supportive approach grounded in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). If you experience intense emotions, fear of abandonment, or patterns in relationships that feel hard to break, you’re not alone—and you’re not “too much.” Together, we focus on building skills to manage emotional intensity, strengthen relationships, and create a greater sense of stability and self-trust. My approach is direct, compassionate, and focused on helping you feel more in control of your reactions while building a life that feels meaningful and steady.

BPD
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most misunderstood and stigmatized diagnoses in mental health. Many people who carry this label have been described as “too much,” “too sensitive,” or “hard to treat”—often after years of experiencing invalidation, unstable relationships, or environments that didn’t feel safe or consistent. For some, the diagnosis itself doesn’t fully capture their experience. For others, it finally puts language to patterns that have felt overwhelming and hard to control. At Nour Counseling, we approach BPD with nuance, respect, and a commitment to understanding the full context of your story.
We work actively with you to make sense of the intensity—whether that’s emotional highs and lows, fear of abandonment, relationship patterns, identity shifts, or impulsive behaviors. Together, we build practical tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and more stable ways of relating to yourself and others. We also pay close attention to your history, including trauma, attachment experiences, and cultural context, because these patterns don’t develop in isolation. This is not about labeling you or reducing you to a diagnosis. It’s about helping you feel more grounded, more understood, and more equipped to navigate your emotions and relationships in a way that feels steadier and more aligned.
