I have been in the mental health field for 16 years from in-home counseling to forensic counseling. This past year I recently got Licensed and opened my own private practice. I have extensive training in Trauma, depression, and anxiety. I’m a big believer that Borderline Personality Disorder stems from trauma and the characteristics one has needed to adapt to in order to function/survive.
