Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
The primary model that I use with individuals with BPD symptoms is Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. Marsha Linehan has designed this model specifically for this diagnosis. In DBT, rather than solely challenging thoughts, which is typical in the cognitive behavioural model, I incorporate mindfulness skills to help you gain awareness of what bodily responses you experience when responding to dysfunctional thoughts and emotions. I also help you learn how to express your needs without letting emotions take over. In order to regulate emotions, I offer a variety of strategies and provide psychoeducation on assertiveness skills and interpersonal effectiveness.

Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a condition where you have challenges controlling emotions. You feel emotions more intensely and for longer than the average person.
Strong emotions (guilt, shame, anxiety, etc.) can be very painful and you may become angry easily. It is often difficult to feel positive emotions, like happiness and it can feel impossible to control your emotions. Relationships with your family and friends are affected by these emotions, and feelings of loneliness and isolation are a result.
When emotions run your life, you can experience extra challenges, such as:
Overreacting
Mood swings
Frequent crises
Suicidal thoughts and destructive behaviour
Impulsiveness
Substance misuse
Relationship problems
Fear of abandonment
Are these challenges familiar? Have you done a counselling program in the past to address these issues but would like to continue counselling?
The good news is that I have been providing counselling to individuals, and their partners/family members, who struggle with BPD and other challenges since 2015. I have experience helping people learn new skills and to change behaviours and take control of their lives.
Counselling can help you understand BPD and provide you with emotional support, skills and training to manage your emotions and improve your relationships with loved ones.
