Amazing Grace Psychiatric Services, PLLC

Personality disorders often stem from a traumatic event or series of traumatic events, where the individual has learned to adapt to survive. Finding the core of these behaviors, will help to address some of the maladaptive behaviors, and learn to move forward in a healthy way. Let's improve on those interpersonal relationship skills!

Borderline Personality Disorder
PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Helping clients and families identify what they can change and what they can’t change is a major goal in DBT. In therapy, we help loved ones minimize their contributions to the problems (by invalidating) while also helping coach them in how to be real, transparent, and how to set their own limits.
Learning how and when to validate is a huge part of the process.

Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC, LCMHC, CCTP, C-DBT, CYMHS
This is actually my favorite clients to work with and the reason is simple, I feel like I'm more effective with this group than any other. There are multiple treatment processes with a strong evidence base when it comes to BPD, and I'm certified in DBT, which is the most commonly discussed and very helpful in reducing self-injury and suicide. However, when it comes to reducing emotional distress, I also use Mentalization Based Therapy techniques, and many ideas / techniques from the lifetime of research provided by Russell Meares out of Sidney University in Australia.
I should make a special note about teenagers though, as there's a significant cross-over between BPD and normal teenage behavior, the real difference isn't the experience or behavior it's the level of severity. This is one reason we don't diagnose personality disorders prior to adulthood. Working with teens who have BPD traits often requires good coordination between parents and therapist.

Borderline Personality Disorder
Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my practice, I often integrate aspects of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) manage their emotions and improve interpersonal relationships. Additionally, I utilize elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients develop mindfulness skills, increase psychological flexibility, and align their actions with their values, fostering a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Lastly, incorporating Narrative Therapy techniques, clients explore their life experiences and challenges from a contextual standpoint, empowering them to reconstruct their self-narrative and find new meaning in their journey towards healing and self-discovery.
