Some ideas to try in the meantime: 1. Psychology Today .com offers names of psychs and their specialties. 2. Crisis center has lists of psychs . Most counties in the DC metro area have crisis center hotline numbers. 3. Health insurance may have a list.

Thank you for the response. Actually I have utilized the Psychology Today for therapist. Most do not specialize in BPD behavior. I haven't reached out to crisis lines, but that could be a possibility. Thank you for the suggestions.

(many don't but will take the case...on a case by case basis) Point being...these cases are not for newbies.

Did you have any luck finding someone? Could you pass on your findings? Her current therapist is a "newbie" and causing more harm than good.
