If you are looking for someone to treat BPD, I suggest looking up people who have Personality Disorders listed in green. Best of luck, it is a really hard process!

I went back and took a look at the specialties listed in green. No one listed BPD specifically. The closest was one who listed "emotional disturbance" and another who listed "self-harming."
I feel like I'm screwed with respect to anyone knowing anything about BPD. I understand that a lot of them don't want to work with "labels" including my xT. But given my experience with xT, I feel someone at least has to express an openness to the idea that I might require slightly different approaches than they are used to, and be willing to do a little research to provide it. It might broaden their own horizons as well as do me a service.
