Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in Blaine, MN

As a mental health practitioner, I feel it is important to meet each person where they are and support them on their journey for change. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, stuck, hopeless, or all of the above, let's talk about it! In session, we will explore the values, beliefs, and personal expectations that impact how you interact with the world and determine the proper steps to improve your overall quality of life.

I am happy to serve any client at or above the age of 10. While I primarily work with kids, adolescents, and young adults, I am happy to serve any population seeking to fulfill their mental health needs!

The foundation of my work is to build a trusting and responsive relationship. I work with people to identify their goals and priorities and offer support to enact change that is meaningful and fulfilling. My areas of interest include addressing depression and anxiety, as well as trauma and core beliefs that impact the present moment. I enjoy working with people who are going through significant life changes (education, career, relationship, life stage transitions). I also have a special interest in perinatal mental health.

As a Neuro-Divergent therapist, my goal is by building trust and providing guidance and empathy, we will work together to conquer, defeat, and understand the challenges that are preventing your ability to live the life you deserve. I hold over 10 years of experience helping individuals manage their ADHD symptoms, anxiety, mood disorders, family and relationship conflicts, depression, processing their trauma, and co-dependency. Professionally and personally I know the challenges and beauty associated with hearing "Focus more" and "Just work harder". WE'LL focus more and work harder together to overcome your biggest challenges.

Overwhelmed? Feeling distressed with worry, fear, sadness, despair, or a combination of difficult feelings? Relationship challenges? Parenting challenges? Terry is a family therapist who believes most people can manage their own lives, except for those few times when life throws a curveball, then we may have difficulty figuring how to handle that ball. We often find ourselves going in circles using old techniques. My desire and privilege is to come alongside you in your journey forward.

Are you tired of therapists who say that they do relationship therapy only to have you practice basic communication skills? Are you tired of the lack of progress and want to get unstuck once and for all? I specialize in making sure that time does continue to pass by while you are feeling weighed down in the status quo. I'm straightforward and honest. My clients describe me as annoyingly neutral when they try to get me to take sides against their partners. They also describe me as willing to ask the hard questions and willing to keep people accountable. I love helping people navigate every stage of coupling or uncoupling.

My goal is to provide empathetic, creative problem-solving, and dynamic counsel to those who find themselves both stressed and depressed by the circumstances of the life they are living -- both alone and in relationship with others. This is not about "mental illness" or behavioral change alone. This is about providing a caring, non-judgmental and trained ear to those in need of someone to hear them, offer a new perspective of looking at things and creating new proactive approaches to life's problems. This is for those who may be apprehensive about therapy, but need to converse with a non-judgmental, objective listener.

Do you think change has to be hard or take a long time? Do you want more out of life? Are you wondering if you will ever be happy again? Do you want better quality relationships? Do you wish you could put a spark back into your marriage? Are you tired of trying and feeling hopeless? I take a no nonsense approach to therapy and use razor sharp precision to get to the core issues. I am highly skilled at helping clients remove the "porcupine quills" that hurt whenever a bad memory is triggered.

When it comes to therapy, I know it takes a lot of courage and vulnerability to find the "right" therapist. It is an investment in time, energy and resources, so making it worthwhile is important. My approach is validating as well as direct. My clients have said that I get to the root of their situations quickly and provide clear ideas of how to cope differently. I am a skills-oriented therapist who has many ideas and strategies for working toward your goals.

Making the choice to start therapy is a difficult one. You’re here because you are making a brave choice and you’re wanting help to break from that feeling of being stuck in one or more areas of your life. You try and form healthier habits and quit the old ones, but for some reason it is not working. You desire relationships that build you up, but more often than not, you find yourself in unhealthy ones, and are left feeling confused and alone. Parenting, school and life feel overwhelming and you are ready for a long lasting change. Good News, you’ve come to the right place !

Clients I work with are often not very willing to open up about themselves and are at times uninterested in therapy. Some would like to change but do not want to have to talk with someone to accomplish change, others have tried before and never been able to form a good relationship with a therapist. My clients often have a high resting level of anger and likely have had issues in life with anger or are described as difficult by others.
