Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in Rancho Mirage, CA

I've been counseling for over 20 years, working with a diversity of clients various issues but not limited to those with addiction, codependency, self-esteem, low motivation, anxiety, depression and racial inequalities as well, just to name a few. I enjoy working with client as they take this courageous journey to finding some different and better coping skills. I also love working with client as they begin to gain more insight into the past trauma and ways to changing their tomorrows. I have a passion of working with clients on looking at levels of forgiveness, breaking down past shame and guilt that one may still be suffering.

Have the demands of career, marriage or parenting become overwhelming? Are you worried about your kids? Have your problems become unmanageable? Have you become more isolated or are you relying on substances to help you calm down and cope? When anxiety and sadness are more prevalent than hope or happiness, I can help.

Whether you're struggling with consequences stemming from past trauma, chronic mental illness, grief/loss, hopelessness, anger, resentment or profound life changes; healing is possible. Therapy is the process of building insight and awareness into behaviors and thoughts that ultimately perpetuate the hurt and pain. My goal is to assist in you finding the best way to break this pattern, change old and ineffective ways of coping and building a better understanding of why we do what we do. We often are trying to make right or whole, something that was so broken, destroyed or distorted from our past.

I am a licensed Marriage Family Therapist. I believe the main goal of therapy is healing, change, and growth; not criticism and condemnation. Therapy is most effective in an accepting, confidential atmosphere where there is mutual exploration of the issues and challenges of life in our complex world. Perhaps we need a new perspective in our way of thinking and our way of behaving in order to more effectively make our way through life's obstacles. Effective therapy is both educational and introspective. I offers faith/Christian based counseling upon request.

I am a Life Coach, Psychotherapist, and published author with 25 years of experience. My methods are unconventional, so you may expect exceptional results from our work together. I understand the real challenges people face because I've faced them, not just read about them. Of course I treat all of the standard "disorders" my colleagues list in their websites, but the real alchemy is in the transformation from your current situation, to the extraordinary one you have envisioned! I am the author of a book called, Tactical Boundaries: How to Make All of Your Relationships Work For You. Available on amazon.com & barnesandnoble.com

Sometimes, despite your best efforts, you might find yourself stuck or overwhelmed by life, leaving you feeling anxious and unsettled. Whether you are in the midst of changes in your life or need that extra support to make a necessary transition, therapy can help you find clarity and direction. Working together, let's uncover things about you and your life you may not have known before, experience change, and discover new possibilities.

Healing is your journey back to joy. My philosophy is that every obstacle is an opportunity to grow and learn and that pain is an invitation to make some changes. It is my aim to help you decide what is needed to heal body, mind and spirit. I am certified to bring nutrition into the therapy room, and utilize several modalities and will work with you to create a custom treatment plan that leads you toward your goals. Choosing a therapist is an important decision to consider carefully. I offer a free phone consultation to discuss your goals and help you decide if my style of integrative psychotherapy is a good match for your needs.

As a licensed psychologist in the state of California, I work with people who are experiencing depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, medical problems, relationship and family issues, and challenges with addiction. I welcome patients from a variety of background, spiritual traditions and sexual orientations. I am located in Palm Springs and Palm Desert and often work with patients on a sliding fee scale.

My clients come to me when they're experiencing emotional and/or mental distress and just want the pain to stop...now. They are sleep-deprived (or the opposite), stressed over college, depressed about work, angry or indifferent to everyone, anxious, frustrated by everything! Their stomachs hurt and heads ache. The problems may stem from unmet needs (love, belonging, self-esteem), various issues (trauma, anxiety, addiction, depression, chronic pain) or not meeting personal or life goals. While change can feel difficult and scary, you can learn powerful, safe ways through as you progress to becoming the person you truly want to be.

Any new journey begins with courage, and therapy is no different. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am passionate about collaborating with my clients in creating a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic environment to support them in building skills and supports that will help them today and for the future. Our work will focus on your hopes and goals as you create the life you always wanted.

If you have not had much success so far with therapy and feel that the suggestions have not helped to shift things in your life, I may be a good fit for you. I can help you explore what is contributing to your feeling stuck and overwhelmed and move beyond it towards real healing. I work with children, teens, parents, adults and families. Being a parent myself, I can often bridge gaps between children and parents.
