Personality Disorders

Experiencing chronic emotional distress and dysregulation can leave us feeling isolated and alone, and like we can't get connected to ourselves. I have worked extensively with people diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and Borderline Traits for years with empathic validation and effective Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Many of my clients utilize DBT skills to soothe distress, regulate emotions, and truly build a life that's worth living.

I specialize in helping people recover from narcissistic relationships. Together, we will: process the relationship and emotional trauma, explore emotional triggers, recognize healthy and unhealthy relationships, set boundaries, prioritize your needs, and build a healthy support system.

I specialize in supporting people with Borderline Personality Disorder as well as people who have been impacted by Narcissistic abuse. In our sessions, I create a safe place for you to uncover the coping skills you learned as a result of your trauma and develop healthier skills for navigating experiences of abandonment, rejection, and emotional instability. Together, we can help you feel safe in your body, heal your trauma, and develop healthy relationships in your life today.

It can be difficult when diagnosed with a personality disorder to know where to turn. I have worked with numerous clients to understand their diagnosis and to help them learn to connect with their environment.

I work with a wide variety of individuals ranging from 14 to 74, some of which struggle with symptoms of Borderline, Histrionic, Narcissistic, Avoidant, and Dependent Personality Disorders. These individuals have stories revealing a great deal of pain from wounds that did not heal properly or completely and manifest in patterns throughout their lives. Together we will uncover and process through experiences while establishing a safe and healthy therapeutic relationship towards hope and healing.

I am intensively trained in DBT through the Linehan Institute. I have extensive experience working with clients with borderline personality disorder and those struggling with self-harm and suicidal thoughts both individually and in a group setting.

I specialize in clients diagnosed with personality disorders. I will support you in working towards your ideal life, managing symptoms, and understanding the diagnosis.

I have extensive experience and knowledge specifically with borderline personality disorder, dependent personality disorder, and avoidant personality disorder.

Managing personality disorders can be really overwhelming. It is overwhelming for the individual as well as family and loved ones. I assist clients in managing personality disorders, primarily borderline personality disorder (BPD), through an intervention known as DBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. We work together and learn skills like mindfulness, emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness and distress tolerance.

Receiving a personality disorder diagnosis such as Borderline Personality Disorder can feel extremely disorienting. Seeking a personality disorder diagnosis might feel like steady ground. Either way, it is hard finding a genuine space to explore your personal experience, and how carrying this diagnosis may be a relief, or an extreme judgement, or both. I offer a trauma-informed, healing-centered, Internal Family Systems approach.

Some of my clients feel understood for the first time in their lives when they receive a personality disorder diagnosis. Others have strong negative feelings about it. No matter how you feel about it, the recurrent depression, feelings of emptiness, feeling outside of life, having a hard time building really satisfying relationships with others, and chaotic feeling that can come with BPD or NPD is painful. You deserve help that can ease your suffering and help you live a more satisfying life.

We provide comprehensive treatment for a wide range of personality disorders, such as Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder, and more. Each requires a specialized approach, and we are dedicated to pairing you with an experienced therapist who is suited to your specific needs. Our network of skilled professionals is trained in proven, effective treatments to help you achieve a balanced and fulfilling life.

I have years of experience in working with clients with Borderline Personality traits-I use DBT but also other modalties as well since not everyone connects or likes DBT!

I specialize in working with Borderline personality Disorder in particular, with having experience and success with helping this population improve their emotional regulation skills and ability, and improve their inter-personal relationships. I am also working on becoming certified in DBT to help this population as well.

Struggling with chronic emotion dysregulation and distress can feel isolating and demoralizing. With DBT I help clients diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder or Borderline traits build skills to soothe emotional distress, regulate and focus the mind, and build a true life worth living. I have extensive training in DBT and its applications, and have offered DBT in all levels of care and settings.

When a trauma occurs, our brain tries to cope by getting our needs met in ways that others don’t understand. Those behaviors are often grouped together and labeled as a personality disorder. I work to take the shame and invalidation from these disorders and help clients learn coping skills and resolve trauma so that our brains don’t need to work so aggressively to get our needs met.

People with personality disorders experience long-standing patterns of behaviors, thoughts, and feelings that cause distress or impairment in various areas of functioning, such as relationships, work, or social interactions. These patterns are typically inflexible and pervasive, persisting across different situations and contexts.
