Personality disorders are treatable, contrary to common belief. My speciality is Transference Focused Psychotherapy (TFP). I work with patients who may or may not be acutely symptomatic but continue to struggle even after several prior treatments. Besides of Borderline patients, I work with a broad range of personality disorders. I use medications when they can be effective, and based on your symptoms. I also work with younger adults who display "failure to launch". In any case, our work will start with a thorough assessment and I will share my impression with you as well as what I recommend. We'll also see are we a good match?
Depression and anxiety are symptoms that can have various causes. I almost always combine therapy with medications. Sometimes you will be able to stop taking medications. Other times, finding the right medication or combination is challenging. When necessary I use the latest genetic test to help with this process.
Some of the difficulties I can help you with are self-defeating tendencies, dissatisfaction with self and others, self-destructive behaviors, repeated maladaptive patterns in interpersonal and/or work situations,sexual inhibition. I have special expertise differentiating bipolar and borderline personality disorders as well as a specialized therapy: TFP.

Personality disorder is a scary term and is associated with a lot of stigma. I will be able to explain to you what it means based on your experience. It means an unstable sense of self and others, leading to problems with regulation of emotions, impulsivity, feelings of emptiness. Setbacks tend to lead to depressive feelings, even suicidal behaviors. Other self-destructive behaviors are common.

I use psychoanalytic therapies as these are the only ones that go beyond symptom relief but rather offer a deeper level of change, leading to better adaptation to life, a better sense of self and others and a better way of understanding self and others. We will work in the here-and-now, which has to do with your past but that is not our focus but rather how past negatively influences the present.
