Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC (CCTP, CYMHS, C-DBT, C-PD)
This is actually my favorite clients to work with and the reason is simple, I feel like I'm more effective with this group than any other. There are multiple treatment processes with a strong evidence base when it comes to BPD, and I'm certified in DBT, which is the most commonly discussed and very helpful in reducing self-injury and suicide. However, when it comes to reducing emotional distress, I also use Mentalization Based Therapy techniques, and many ideas / techniques from the lifetime of research provided by Russell Meares out of Sidney University in Australia.
I should make a special note about teenagers though, as there's a significant cross-over between BPD and normal teenage behavior, the real difference isn't the experience or behavior it's the level of severity. This is one reason we don't diagnose personality disorders prior to adulthood. Working with teens who have BPD traits often requires good coordination between parents and therapist.

Chesapeake is the largest city in Virginia by land area — a mostly suburban and semi-rural community spread across the southern Hampton Roads region — with a therapy landscape shaped by its proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and the broader military community, as well as the particular stresses of a sprawling suburb where long commutes and limited walkable community can contribute to social isolation. The city's large African American population and its place within Hampton Roads' racially complex social fabric create demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Chesapeake Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside the broader Hampton Roads healthcare ecosystem. Many Chesapeake residents access therapy through the wider Norfolk-Virginia Beach metro, given the city's geographic extent and integration with the regional mental health network.
