BPD
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Borderline Personality Disorder often reflects deep attachment wounds and intense fears of abandonment. My approach combines IFS, attachment and family systems work, and DBT-informed skills for emotion regulation and relationship repair. I also integrate psychodynamic and narrative therapies to uncover the stories beneath shame and reactivity. When needed, I work closely with prescribers to manage co-occurring symptoms, and I provide careful diagnostic clarification to distinguish BPD from trauma or bipolar presentations.

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.
