Finding Stability in an Emotional Storm

A woman in a gray sleeveless shirt appears upset, with her eyes squinted and forehead furrowed, as she holds her hands up in front of her, with palms facing outward, in a defensive or stopping gesture against a plain gray wall background.

Do you feel like your emotions are a roller coaster that you can’t get off? Does a minor disagreement feel like a devastating rejection, or do you find yourself caught in a cycle of intense relationships that shift rapidly from perfect to painful? If you struggle with an overwhelming fear of abandonment, chronic feelings of emptiness, or impulsive reactions that you later regret—you may have Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).

At Hipp Therapy, we specialize in providing expert online BPD therapy for adults across Henderson, Las Vegas, and the entire state of Nevada. We don’t see BPD as a character flaw. Our goal is to help you build a "life worth living" through compassionate care from the comfort of your own home.

Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder

The Challenges of Emotional Dysregulation

BPD is essentially a disorder of the emotional regulation system. While everyone experiences ups and downs, for someone with BPD, the "emotional thermostat" is set much higher.

Common Signs of BPD:

  1. Fear of Abandonment: Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined rejection, which can lead to clinginess or pushing others away.

  2. Unstable Relationships: A pattern of intense relationships characterized by "splitting"—seeing people as either all good or all bad.

  3. Identity Confusion: A shifting sense of self, goals, and values, or feeling like you don't know who you really are.

  4. Impulsive Behaviors: Engaging in risky actions (spending, substance use, etc.) as a way to cope with intense internal pain.

  5. Chronic Emptiness: A persistent, heavy feeling that something is "missing" or that life lacks meaning.

Living with these symptoms is exhausting, but BPD is highly treatable. Our licensed Nevada therapists use specialized tools to help you lower the "volume" on your emotions.

Our Approach to BPD Treatment

We primarily use DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) to treat Borderline Personality Disorder. DBT is the clinical gold standard for BPD recovery:

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills

DBT is designed specifically to help with emotional dysregulation. We focus on four key areas:

  1. Mindfulness: Learning to be present in the moment without judgment.

  2. Distress Tolerance: Tools to get through an emotional crisis without making the situation worse.

  3. Emotion Regulation: Strategies to decrease the frequency and intensity of painful emotions.

  4. Interpersonal Effectiveness: Skills to ask for what you need and set boundaries while maintaining your self-respect.

Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT)

We also integrate MBT to help you understand the thoughts and feelings behind your own actions and the actions of others. By improving your ability to "mentalize," you can stop reacting on impulse and start responding with clarity in your relationships.

Why Online Therapy Works for BPD

Stability and consistency are the foundations of BPD recovery.

  • Reliability: Virtual sessions remove the barriers of traffic and travel, making it easier to maintain the consistent, weekly support that BPD recovery requires.

  • A Safe Container: Meeting in your own home can reduce the "social anxiety" or "performance pressure" that often comes with entering a clinical office, allowing for more authentic work.

  • Statewide Accessibility: Whether you are in Reno, Elko, or Summerlin, you have access to specialized BPD care that is often only found in major metropolitan hubs.

BPD Therapy FAQs

Is BPD a lifelong diagnosis?

While the sensitivity may be part of who you are, the symptoms of BPD are highly treatable. Many people who complete a course of DBT find they achieve significant symptom reduction which may lead to them to no longer meet the clinical criteria for BPD.

Do you offer group DBT skills training?

We currently focus on individual DBT-informed therapy, where we tailor the skills specifically to your daily life and personal challenges. We often make referrals to active DBT Skills Groups available in the Las Vegas Valley.

Yes. We are in-network with Aetna, Ambetter, Cigna, Molina Healthcare, Silversummit Healthplan, and United Healthcare. We handle the insurance verification so you can focus on your healing.
