Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in 80027

As a psychologist at Abbott Therapeutic Solutions, I care about offering compassionate therapy that helps people recover from complex problems. Even if you’ve been told you can’t be helped, please don’t give up hope! Overpowering emotions can be disorienting and isolating. I provide specialized support to bring stability, growth, and fulfillment into your life. At ATS we offer supportive and evidence-based treatments that will help you overcome serious problems and rebuild your life. We work as team to provide compassionate care and help our clients succeed.

Everyone deserves the best life has to offer. I strive to give my clients the information, insights and tools they need to make the most of their lives. My approach is very eclectic, but draws heavily upon my own life experiences, cognitive behavioral and existential theories.

Ever woken up and wondered "How did I get here?" Or, maybe something more along the lines of "Here I am, AGAIN-when will I learn?" Maybe you feel stuck and confused-you've done all the right things, accomplished what you've set your mind to, and still find yourself wondering if this is really 'it'-and why that job, relationship, money, or any other 'thing' hasn't been able to fill the ever-growing hole you find yourself tip-toeing around deep down inside yourself. If you are feeling disconnected from your life, your relationships, and your self, it can feel outright impossible to truly heal and grow.

You (or a loved one) may be facing a variety of life’s challenges, including relationship difficulties, stress in transitions, family conflict and/or stress at school or in the workplace. You might be looking to work with a genuine, nonjudgmental professional who can help you find ways to lead a more fulfilling and satisfying life. Together, we can work towards clarifying personal values and goals as well as developing tailored strategies to help you get where you want to be.

In the past thirty years of practice, I've come to deeply understand that all therapy is, in a sense, grief therapy. I began working as a volunteer with Hospice, and although I am trained and practiced in trauma and developmental techniques, I specialize my work with grief and loss. I help my clients walk through the profoundly life-changing territory of losses that can seem impossible to accept and heal from. Because we live in a culture that makes little room for it, I create a place and time for people to unpack their losses and, with time, grow into acceptance. Please let me know if I can help.

I know that children and teens have strengths along with concerning risk factors that may need attention. If you or your family members are experiencing difficulty with your relationships because of communication and problem-solving problems, please consider evidence-based individual or episodic family therapy. Research shows lasting results when parents and youth learn ways to enhance one another's relational skill-building together. I specialize in helping clients find ways to work through risks such as substance abuse, aggression, anxiety, mood swings, trauma, loss and grief, and school issues.

I love working with teens, couples and individuals who are ready to dive deep! With 8 years of experience in the therapy field and a featured appearance on VICE News, I specialize in aiding individuals dealing with a range of challenges, including narcissistic abuse, sexual abuse, complex grief, OCD, anxiety, depression, and various personality disorders. My expertise extends to existential and spiritual crises, women’s issues, toxic relationships, racial oppression, men’s issues, couples therapy, and paranormal activity. In the realm of forensics, I have work with both perpetrators of sexual offenses and victims of crime.

I have been providing support to children, adults and families during times of stress, transition and crisis for over 30 years. Areas of specialization include trauma resolution, life transitions and grief. My approach is both compassionate and practical. Supporting healthy attachment in relationship and supporting the inner changes that occur when one steps onto a spiritual path are of particular interest as well. Moving from worn out habits driving behavior to genuine expression and presence.

I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to heal and reconnect. Therapy can be an intimidating journey and as a therapist I strive to create an environment for my clients that feels caring and supportive, welcoming all emotions and experiences into the space. I work with my clients to better themselves at the pace they feel ready to work at while establishing trust and compassion. In my counseling work I offer client centered approaches, tailoring to each clients individual needs while building a therapeutic relationship. I am passionate about holding space for trauma and specialize in working with teens and young adults.

I am an open minded psychologist and meditation instructor specializing in couples, family and relationship therapy, individual therapy for anxiety, depression and life stressors for adults and children. I utilize an integrative approach including mindfulness and acceptance, family systems, cognitive-behavioral therapy, humanistic and narrative therapy in working with a wide range of clients and problems. I seek to meet clients where they are and understand their cultural contexts while helping them reach their goals. I am a kind, compassionate and motivating therapist that collaborates with clients to live their best life.

Do you struggle with motivation, decision-making, shame/guilt or direction? Are you feeling overwhelmed or anxious? Do you struggle with substance abuse? Are you going through transition and struggling to find your own genuine direction? Are you nervous to ask for help? Are you concerned therapy won't be effective? Beginning treatment is a big decision and finding an effective and compassionate therapist that can ease your transition into therapy is very important. I have a warm, genuine and direct approach and believe you will find our work together will be deeply effective and the results positive and lasting.

Are you overwhelmed with Worry, Sadness, Uncertainty? Do you feel stuck in self-defeating patterns? How would your life or relationships be different after Therapy? There can be effective ways to manage and gain better understanding of the issues, feelings and questions facing you. The first step is getting your support, your safety net... someone who sees you and hears you and understands that your pain is real. Together we can identify issues, enhance your coping skills, develop strategies for depression, anxiety, trauma or relationship troubles.

Do you and your partner suffer from communication problems? Did one of you have an affair and you are wondering if you can rebuild your relationship? Do you long for the days when you felt loved by your partner instead of lonely and in pain? Relationship stress takes a huge toll on your daily life. It can make it impossible to function at work, parent your kids and just get through your day. Studies show that a toxic relationship can even negatively impact your physical health. If any of these difficulties sound familiar, you are not alone. We all need to feel safe with our partner in order to be our best selves in relationship.

As an individual and couple therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, EMDR trained therapist and Certified Integrative Wellness and Life Coach, I believe we all possess the inner strength and ability to make positive changes in our lives. Together we can explore life events, relationship difficulties, or behavior patterns that are leaving you feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unhappy. Through our time spent together in a supportive and safe environment, I can help you to discover new insight and understanding, while learning new ways to approach life or relationship challenges.

"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." I enjoy working with people and assisting them in discovering and removing the obstacles that are blocking their energy to living more authentic lives.

My Approach: Direct and Compassionate - I believe these are the two greatest traits I can bring into my work with others. While working with clients I strive to provide honest feedback that will help guide them forward towards recovery while offering compassion along the journey. I believe that the best route to change is a direct one that does not beat around the bush. The road to recovery of any form can be very difficult as life may be in a state of turmoil. I have found that offering a compassionate approach that fits an individual's needs is the best route to take.

The Vine Therapy was founded as a center for healing, growth and transition for older adolescents and adult individuals. My approach is integrative, as I feel every person has different needs and modalities that will be effective for them. I do not believe that therapy has to be an unenjoyable experience, in fact it can be quite the opposite. I have been treating eating disorders and the wide variety of the struggles that accompany them for many years, and also have a focus on working with college students on the challenges they face.

Unique to my practice is my ability to mirror your innate wisdom. With this relational focus, whether you are coming in for individual or couples therapy, you'll begin to work through issues, and increase your confidence while doing so. I hold a safe space that is conducive to exploring those scary and sometimes dark places that we fear, like broken heartedness, and come out the other side with tenderness, wisdom, & contentment.

Self-defeating patterns, anxiety, bad moods, low self-esteem, compulsions, avoidance, inhibition, relationship problems at home, work or school or parenting dilemmas often respond to professional help. I work with all sorts of people including students, professionals, executives, academics, artists, writers, engineers, entrepreneurs, tradespeople and craftspeople, I'm interested in helping people learn about how they think, feel and understand themselves and others in order to develop more flexible responses.
