Managing mental health can of course be difficult. However, having a relationship with those who struggle with mental health can be equally overwhelming. Concerns such as managing one’s independence, caregiver burnout, or desires to distance or end the relationship can often present. Often, I work with individuals to find ways to manage, whether it be choosing to create distance in the relationship or implementing skills and tools to manage it, I help individuals feel more fulfilled in their relationships and as a result, their lives. I find I particularly enjoy working with clients who have family members or partners with BPD.
