Borderline Personality Disorder Counseling in Colorado

Intense emotions that feel impossible to regulate. Relationships that swing between closeness and conflict. A fear of abandonment that shapes how you connect with others. You shouldn't have to navigate BPD alone. Overcomers Counseling offers specialized counseling for borderline personality disorder across Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins, and Pueblo, plus statewide teletherapy.

You Don't Have to Navigate This Alone

BPD often develops from a combination of biology and early relational experiences, and the emotional intensity that comes with it can feel exhausting and isolating. It's not a character flaw, and it's highly treatable with the right approach. Our therapists provide a space that's stable, consistent, and free of judgment.

Common Signs of BPD

Symptoms often include intense and unstable emotions, fear of abandonment, unstable relationships, impulsivity, chronic feelings of emptiness, and difficulty regulating anger. Many people with BPD describe feeling everything more intensely than those around them.

How Our Therapists Help

Our providers use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), the gold-standard approach for BPD, to help you build skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. For clients who want it, we also offer faith-integrated counseling grounded in grace and consistency.

What is the goal of counseling for Borderline Personality Disorder?

The goal of counseling for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) isn’t to change your personality. It’s to help you find stability and balance in a life that can feel like a constant rollercoaster of intense emotions. Think of it as a guide to help you find the right track. We can work together to help you build skills to manage your emotions, improve your relationships, and develop a stronger, more consistent sense of self. We believe that with the right tools, you can have a life that feels more stable and secure.

How can counseling help with intense emotions?

Living with BPD can feel like your emotional volume knob is turned all the way up, making every feeling—joy, sadness, anger—incredibly intense and overwhelming. Counseling is a space where you can learn how to turn that volume down. We’ll help you understand your triggers, use coping skills to manage intense feelings, and find new ways to express yourself without acting on impulse. We understand how hard this is, and we’ll be a supportive partner as you learn to navigate your emotions.

What is DBT and how can it help with BPD?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, is the gold standard for treating BPD. Think of it as a specialized toolbox designed specifically for you. It's a structured approach that focuses on four key areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can help you learn to stay in the present moment, manage crises without making things worse, handle intense emotions, and build healthier relationships. We can help you learn these skills and take control of your life.

Is it possible to have healthy relationships with BPD?

Having healthy relationships can feel like trying to build a stable structure on shifting ground. The intense fear of abandonment and unstable emotions often associated with BPD can make it difficult to form and maintain connections. We understand this struggle. Counseling can help you build trust, improve communication, and find ways to express your needs and feelings without pushing people away. We believe you deserve healthy, fulfilling relationships, and we're here to help you build them.

Across hundreds of client reviews, one theme comes through again and again: people feel truly heard here. Clients describe finally finding a therapist who understood them, gaining real tools for anxiety, trauma, and anger management, and walking away from sessions feeling lighter and more hopeful. Many say Overcomers was the first place therapy actually felt like the right fit — a space to be met with warmth, patience, and genuine care on the path to becoming who they're meant to be.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Kaitlyn was patient and kind, but she also gave me a different perspective to look at various things in my life. She truly made a difference and I'm only leaving because I'm moving out of state wish I could keep seeing her!! Recommend her to anyone!

Emily Ladd, LSW
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Its difficult to put into words the amount of help Emily has provided me without crying. When I first started this journey like most men I was skeptical at best. And had failed every time I attempted counseling. I knew I needed help but I didn’t know what I needed, thru this first 90 days not only have I felt heard but have worked thru EDM exercises, and have been able to put a name to a lot of the issues I’m facing while also understand you don’t have to be broken forever. She has been extremely patient with me, but also very good at challenging me at the same time. She has given me great resources that fit my life style (I’m not sitting down reading a book but I will listen to a podcast while I’m driving) she truly has been a blessing to not only me but also my children as my relationship is improving with them as well.
