Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in 22209

I am a licensed professional counselor who has a passion for helping individuals explore and solve their own problems. I have over 17 years of experience in the field of mental health working with a diverse population. I am an innovative and effective professional with outstanding therapeutic and interpersonal skills. I have a talent for motivating, teaching, supporting, and effectively collaborating with individuals to meet their treatment goals. I am highly motivated and conscientious. I can offer a wealth of knowledge, experience, and transferable skills in therapeutic sessions.

My motto as a therapist is to provide clients with unconditional positive regard and a solid therapeutic relationship. I believe that with caring and nurturance, there is no wound that cannot be healed and no fear that cannot be overcome. Together, we will discover your current alignment with your "authentic self " and work towards becoming your highest self/ best version. We are all work in progress, and while you may only see the seeds in you, I already see the flowers blooming in you. My aim is to offer you a gentle, sensitive, empathic and non-judgemental relationship, permitting you to reach a point of illumination and healing.

My approach to therapy is open, supportive, and fosters curiosity instead of judgment. I work to help clients achieve insight about the origins of symptoms, while at the same time providing ways to cope with distressing emotions in the present. Our lives can be full of challenges that leave us feeling sad, overwhelmed, alone, and afraid. Sometimes we are unable to understand why we harbor such feelings. Therapy allows us to sort through our emotions, unhelpful behaviors, and negative self-beliefs so that we can continue on with more clarity, self-assurance, purpose, and happiness.

I specialize in complex trauma (C-PTSD), dissociation, addiction, depression, anxiety, relationships, and ADHD. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming.

Though it takes courage and perseverance to face this pain and risk trusting another person to help, I hope you will listen to the part of you the brought you here today.

You are a BADASS - let's settle that now. You probably look like (on instagram) like you have your life together, but inside have a shaky sense of self, low self-esteem, and maybe some problems in relationships? Maybe you don’t feel like you’re doing “enough” and that you are comparing yourself to the curated lives of others (been here, too). You have looked inward and decided it’s time to put YOU first and create the life you want to have. With the right therapist (me?), you can and WILL have a life that you are excited about, deal with those internal struggles, and be your unashamed, authentic you. If this is you, let's talk.
