Living with Borderline Personality Disorder can feel like being caught in a constant emotional storm. You may experience intense mood swings, struggle with fears of abandonment, or feel like your relationships are always shifting between closeness and conflict. At times, you may find yourself acting impulsively, saying things you do not mean, or feeling deep emptiness that is difficult to explain to others.
These experiences are not a sign of weakness or failure. They are the result of long-standing patterns that often develop in response to trauma, neglect, or unstable relationships earlier in life. They are also patterns that can change with the right support and guidance. At R&R Health, we want you to know that you are not broken and you are not beyond help. We have seen countless people with BPD create more stability, self-control, and meaningful connections — and you can too.
BPD often affects every area of life. Relationships may feel intense but fragile, and even small misunderstandings can feel catastrophic. Your sense of identity may shift from one moment to the next, leaving you unsure of who you really are or what you truly want.
Many people with BPD describe feeling emotions more intensely than others. While this emotional sensitivity can be a gift in some ways, it can also make everyday stress feel unbearable. This can lead to cycles of impulsive behavior, self-criticism, and fear that you will lose the people who matter most.
Without treatment, these patterns can repeat over and over. But with the right care, they can be replaced with skills, insight, and confidence that allow you to live a more grounded and fulfilling life.
Personalized Assessment
We take the time to understand your experiences, your challenges, and your goals for the future. We listen without judgment and work alongside you to develop a plan that meets your unique needs.
Evidence-Based Therapies
Our team specializes in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which is widely recognized as the most effective treatment for BPD. DBT focuses on building skills in four key areas: emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. We also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Schema Therapy when appropriate to help shift deep-seated patterns and beliefs.
Holistic and Experiential Healing
BPD recovery involves more than just talking about challenges. We provide opportunities for you to heal through experience. This may include surf therapy, yoga, breathwork, reiki, sound healing, art therapy, music therapy, equine-assisted activities, and outdoor adventures. These experiences help you connect with your body, reduce stress, and build trust in yourself.
Support for Relationships and Daily Life
Because relationships are often deeply affected by BPD, we integrate relationship skills training, communication strategies, and, when appropriate, family therapy to rebuild trust and understanding. We also help you create healthy routines and structure that support your progress beyond treatment.
Our goal is to help you feel grounded, confident, and in control of your life. You will learn how to manage intense emotions without being overwhelmed by them, communicate your needs in healthy ways, and develop a stable sense of self that is not dependent on the approval or presence of others.
Many of our clients leave treatment feeling more at peace with themselves and more connected to the people they care about. They discover that the qualities they once thought of as weaknesses — deep sensitivity, emotional intensity, passion — can become strengths when paired with the right skills and self-awareness.
You have the capacity for lasting change, and we will be here to guide you through every step of the process.
You do not have to face this alone. Whether you are seeking help for yourself or a loved one, our admissions team will guide you every step of the way.
