Individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) require therapy integral to their treatment. BPD is a complex and challenging mental health disorder characterized by intense and unstable emotions, self-image difficulties, impulsivity, and turbulent relationships. The purpose of therapy is to assist individuals in managing their feelings, enhancing their coping abilities, and developing healthier relationships with themselves and others.
The therapeutic approach selected for BPD can vary depending on the individual's specific requirements, severity of symptoms, and treatment objectives. The multifaceted nature of BPD is frequently treated with a combination of therapies and methods.
Therapy for BPD is frequently long-term, and the therapeutic relationship between the patient and therapist is essential for treatment success. Individuals with BPD must engage with mental health professionals with experience and knowledge in treating this complex disorder. Suppose you or someone you know is struggling with BPD. In that case, seeking assistance from a qualified mental health professional is recommended to develop an individualized, comprehensive treatment plan.

Stephanie Ennen
Therapist, LPC,LCPC, LMHC
I specialize in supporting individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), recognizing the unique challenges that come with emotional dysregulation, unstable relationships, and a fluctuating self-image. My approach is grounded in compassion, understanding, and evidence-based practices.
In our sessions, we will work collaboratively to explore the patterns and triggers that contribute to your experiences. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), a highly effective treatment for BPD, we will focus on building essential skills in mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help you manage intense emotions and improve your relationships with others.
I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to address negative thought patterns that may exacerbate feelings of emptiness and self-doubt. Together, we will challenge these thoughts and work towards developing a more stable and positive self-image.
A key aspect of my therapy is psychoeducation. By understanding BPD and its impact on your life, you can gain valuable insights that empower you to take control of your healing process. We will also focus on creating a personalized self-care plan to enhance your emotional well-being and promote a sense of stability.
My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and foster meaningful connections. Together, we can work towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.
