Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in Minneapolis, MN
As part of our human experience, it is inevitable that we will face countless transitions, uncertainties, and challenges. These experiences, whether subtle or profound, shape our internal landscapes and narratives we carry forward. If you have something you have been carrying with you for some time or have just been handed a load that you aren't sure how to bear, you are not alone. Therapy offers more than a structured dialogue; it is an intentional space for reflection to explore the past, make sense of the present, and thoughtfully craft your future.

Perhaps you’re a high achiever who’d like help with navigating a values-driven life above standard markers of success (new car, promotion, new house).
Or, you’re in a romantic relationship where there is inequity in how household labor is aligned. You’d like to subvert gender stereotypes, though are having trouble living up to your ideals.
Maybe you’re in the “sandwich generation;” caring for your children, minding your parents’ health, and trying to avoid losing yourself in the process. Therapy can provide an opportunity to both reduce stress, and increase your ability to tolerate the parts of life where struggle is inevitable.

I see life as a mosaic of our personal and shared experiences, and we all do the best we can with what we know at the time. But sometimes, anxiety, depression or the simple challenges of daily life can hold people back from living the fullest, best story of their life. My goal as a therapist is to explore and bring to light a person’s inner strengths, so they can overcome their personal obstacles and enjoy better, more productive lives and relationships. Everyone, regardless of life’s challenges, deserves the best life they can imagine, and my goal is to walk with them and help them along this journey.

I'm not a stereotypical, rigid, "how do you feel about that?" kind of therapist. I'm a casual, quirky kind of therapist. I will show up authentically and welcome you to do the same. Are you into sarcasm, dark humor, or swearing? I'm here for it. Are you reserved, nervous, sensitive, shy, or tearful? I'm here for you, too! I believe therapy isn't just about the bad or difficult things - but all of who you are. I want our sessions to be a space for you to share your story, laugh, process, build skills, cry, problem-solve, vent, or just talk about what's on your mind. Therapy is whatever you want and need it to be!

I love working with people who are ready to do the work, even if they still have strong defenses or aren’t sure where to begin. My ideal clients are middle-aged adults navigating anxiety, identity shifts, and life transitions, and children recovering from trauma, including sexual abuse and sex trafficking. I especially connect with clients in the contemplation or action stage, who may not have all the answers but know something needs to shift. I value honesty, even when it’s messy, and offer a nonjudgmental space for healing. Clients come to explore their potential, find clarity, and build a more grounded, fulfilling life.

Hi, thank you for visiting my profile! If you have made it this far, you are probably thinking about making a change in your life. Change is difficult, but it has the power to heal many generations. It takes a lot of courage and strength to reach out and accept help. In therapy, I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to be your authentic self, because when we feel seen and accepted true healing can begin. Talking about your insecurities and deepest thoughts and feelings can feel scary and vulnerable, but it is not impossible.

You may have always felt a little different—too sensitive, too overwhelmed, or like everyone else got the rules you missed. You may be wondering whether autism or neurodivergence has been part of your story all along, and grieving the years spent believing something was wrong with you. I also work with women navigating pregnancy loss, infertility, grief, trauma, and life transitions. You do not need to have it all figured out to begin therapy—just a place where your experiences are met with curiosity and compassion.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over twenty years of experience who specializes in treatment for shame, grief, and trauma. I have worked in many different settings with people from a wide variety backgrounds. Although my recent focus has been working with individuals with complex PTSD, such as developmental and relational trauma, I enjoy meeting with people generally and will be responsive to any presenting issues that may be causing you distress. Most recently, I have met with people primarily for relationship and work difficulties as well as identity exploration and emotion regulation.

I believe healing is reconnection to your true self. Often life experiences can make it difficult for us to know who we are or feel comfortable as we are, and healing is that reconnection to your true self and your true identity. My goal in therapy is to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore the changes you want to make. I specialize in working with people experiencing chronic health conditions, chronic pain, and disability. I also work with folks dealing with substance use issues, neurodivergence (diagnosed and undiagnosed), mood disorders, anxiety, long COVID, and domestic violence.

I currently work with individuals, partners, and families. My area of passion and expertise is gender and sexuality. I also view therapy and self-care as an act of resistance and believe it can help individuals with marginalized identities cope with minority stress and systemic oppression. I am currently seeing clients virtually if you live in MN. I work with almost all mental health diagnoses including anxiety, depression, panic disorders, PTSD/CPTSD, bipolar, personality disorders, DID, and schizophrenia/delusional disorders. I also have specialized experience in substance use and eating disorders.

Every person's experience in therapy is unique. I know that my 30+ years of experience, the ongoing training I consistently pursue and the areas in which I have particular expertise are important factors to the people who come to see me. I create a safe and compassionate environment so individuals and couples can freely express their questions and needs. Beyond those critical pieces, I believe that the success of the therapy will rest on our ability to work together in an atmosphere of mutual respect and trust.

While searching online for a therapist can be overwhelming, I encourage you to trust in your ability to find the right person to help. A lot of these profiles sound similar, so how do you choose? I'll try to share a couple things I think would help you decide if I would be a good fit for you. The most important is that my work focuses on identifying and resolving underlying patterns, in order to create lasting change (instead of coping skills that provide temporary relief but don't resolve the issue).
