Borderline Personality Disorder
Janese Leatherbury
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LiCSW
My approach to treating borderline personality disorder is compassionate, structured, and grounded in attachment and skills-based work. I understand BPD as rooted in nervous system sensitivity and relational wounds rather than as a character flaw. Therapy focuses on building safety, consistency, and trust within the therapeutic relationship while helping clients develop tools to manage emotional intensity, impulsivity, and fears of abandonment.
I integrate DBT-informed interventions to strengthen distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness, alongside attachment-focused and trauma-informed work to address underlying experiences of invalidation, instability, or loss. We work to increase awareness of triggers, identify patterns in relationships, and challenge black-and-white thinking while cultivating a more integrated and stable sense of self.
Throughout treatment, I emphasize accountability paired with deep empathy. My goal is to help clients move from surviving emotional storms to feeling grounded, connected, and capable of sustaining healthy relationships and self-worth.

Borderline Personality Disorder
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a very treatable condition. However, it can be misdiagnosed for other disorders, and this can delay treatment gains. Following a thorough evaluation to establish BPD, I use one of three forms of contemporary psychodynamic therapy (i.e., Transference-Focused psychotherapy, Mentalization-Based Treatment, or Supportive Therapy) alone or in combination. All of these therapies have been tested in clinical trials. I have published professional works (e.g., articles; a book) on psychodynamic therapy. Please note that I do not do couple's therapy and that I will not schedule appointments intended for other people (e.g., spouses, family members). All potential patients must contact me directly.

Borderline Personality Disorder
Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I prefer the term Complex PTSD for this disorder, as studies show most people with Borderline have a history of early childhood trauma. If this is you, the good news is this is one of the more treatable diagnoses. and with my speciality in trauma, and complex trauma, I can help educate you in what your body is doing as a result of what was done to you, and this can be changed.
If you have a family member with it: Living with someone with Borderline can be challenging, buy you don't have to do it alone. Counseling can also help you to manage this relationship better and ensure you are not unintentionally doing things to worsen the situation.

Borderline Personality Disorder
Cameron Staley
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Individuals with borderline traits are often misunderstood and do not often receive the types of care and support they need. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is an effective way to develop skills to better navigate the challenges associated with emotion regulation difficulties and interpersonal concerns.
