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
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.

Nat Nigro
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.Ed., LPC-MHSP
As a nonbinary AuDHD therapist, I view BPD through a Neurodivergent affirming lens. Often my clients with BPD benefit from DBT skills work to manage difficult experiences they are having in the present moment, while also using a trauma based approach to look deeper at past experiences that may be impacting them in the present as well. I think we all deserve a safe place to heal and be ourselves, and I would be honored to create one of those spaces for you.

16 Years Experience
Online in Memphis, TN
Memphis has among the highest rates of poverty and violent crime in the United States, and its therapists frequently specialize in trauma, PTSD, and the psychological effects of chronic community-level violence and economic stress. The city's African American community — which comprises a majority of the population and carries a rich cultural heritage rooted in blues, soul, and civil rights history — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. Regional One Health and Baptist Memorial Health Care provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of community clinics. Memphis's deep musical identity sustains a creative community with its own distinctive mental health needs around artistic expression, economic precarity, and the weight of legacy.
