Borderline Personality Disorder
Mae Winters
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can feel emotionally exhausting and confusing. Intense emotions, fear of abandonment, relationship instability, and difficulty regulating reactions can make daily life and connections feel overwhelming. Many individuals with BPD have experienced chronic invalidation or relational trauma and are often deeply sensitive, intuitive, and emotionally aware.
I work with adults diagnosed with BPD or who identify with BPD traits to help them better understand their emotional patterns, strengthen distress tolerance, and build more stable, fulfilling relationships. Therapy focuses on developing skills for emotional regulation, improving communication, and increasing self-understanding while reducing impulsive or self-defeating behaviors. My approach is structured, compassionate, and collaborative, with an emphasis on consistency, safety, and growth over time.
Treatment is paced intentionally and grounded in evidence-based strategies that support long-term change. My goal is to help clients feel more stable within themselves, more secure in relationships, and more confident in their ability to navigate intense emotions without being overwhelmed by them.

Borderline Personality Disorder
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in borderline personality disorder (BPD), my treatment approach is comprehensive, empathetic, and tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Utilizing evidence-based therapies such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), schema therapy, and psychodynamic therapy, I collaborate closely with clients to address emotional dysregulation, interpersonal difficulties, and identity disturbances characteristic of BPD. Through skill-building exercises, emotion regulation techniques, and exploration of past experiences, we work together to develop coping strategies and promote self-awareness. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of establishing a trusting therapeutic relationship and providing validation and support throughout the healing process. My goal is to empower individuals with BPD to cultivate stability, improve relationships, and lead fulfilling lives.
