Title: New here Looking for support / therapist for me
Post by: MrsDarling on September 11, 2019, 02:07:50 PM
Hi! I am just reading everything I can about BPD as I am now thinking this fits my husband and explains lots of erratic, difficult behavior through the years. I am looking for advice on finding a therapist for myself to help me process this. General or specific recommendations welcome. I am in SF Bay Area. THANK YOU! :love-it:

I basically searched through providers listed with my insurance and found ones who specialized in DBT, personality disorders and couple's counseling. I ended up with a T who has a doctorate in marriage and family therapy and has DBT training. She's been a really good fit for me.

I wish you good luck! In a big city, hopefully you have a lot of options.

Hi and welcome to the boards.

What sort of behaviors does your husband have that made you suspect BPD?   Can you tell us what you find most challenging?  Share more if you can or want to.   |iiii
