You know any BPD specialist in Northern California Title: Re: Bpd -don't want therapy Post by: Mike-X on March 27, 2015, 07:04:08 AM I do not know of any therapists in northern California. Have you tried www.m.therapists.psychologytoday.com/rms/ (http://www.m.therapists.psychologytoday.com/rms/)?
Have you had a chance to read any of the lessons on this website, particularly lessons on communication with someone living with BPD? https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=108307 (https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=108307) Title: Re: Bpd -don't want therapy Post by: lbjnltx on March 27, 2015, 08:47:03 AM Hi barbara15,
Finding the right kind of therapy and then the right "fit" of a therapist can be very challenging... .on top of all the other challenges we face. For a list of properly trained DBT therapists in your state one resource is behavioraltech.org (http://www.behavioraltech.org/index.cfm) They have a resource directory listing therapists by state, city, type of therapy (in/out patient), comorbid disorders treated. I hope you can find some options that will best help your daughter. lbjnltx Title: Re: Bpd -don't want therapy Post by: Turkish on March 27, 2015, 10:03:44 AM We have DBT Psycologist but she says she's old and will not understand me. You know any BPD specialist in Northern California barbara15, I'm sorry that you are going through this. It's very tough to navigate what we know someone needs (treatment, and hopefully healing) with the fact that someone else is an independent person with a stubborn free will. If you're in Nor-Cal, have you looked into resources at the UC Davis Med center? www.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/children/clinical_services/CAARE/dialectical_bt.html If you haven't, do you think you can call or contact them to explore options? If she's 21 or under, she would qualify for their program. If not, then they could probably refer you to adult services in your area. |
