What It Is

Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a serious mental health condition marked by a pattern of instability in moods, self-image, behavior, and relationships. People with BPD often experience intense episodes of anger, depression, or anxiety that can last from a few hours to a few days, along with impulsive actions and difficulty maintaining stable relationships.

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, an estimated 1.4% of U.S. adults experience BPD in a given year. NIMH data also shows that fewer than half of adults with BPD, about 42.4%, receive treatment in a given year, despite BPD being one of the most researched and treatable personality disorders when addressed with the right, specialized approach.

Located in Phoenixville, we provide BPD treatment to individuals throughout Chester County and the greater Philadelphia region, including Pottstown, Malvern, Norristown, and surrounding communities.
