Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) unveils a complex interplay of emotional wounds and relational dynamics. It is frequently the result of intense feelings of instability and abandonment fear, which have their roots in early attachment experiences. Trauma, whether explicit or implicit, further shapes the landscape, deepening the scars of relational ruptures. Individuals with BPD may oscillate between intense feelings of love and rage, seeking validation and connection yet fearing rejection and betrayal.
BPD reflects a desperate longing for secure attachments, juxtaposed with a profound fear of engulfment or abandonment. Therapy becomes a journey of unraveling these intricate patterns, forging new pathways of understanding and healing. By cultivating self-awareness and fostering secure relationships, individuals can learn to navigate the turbulent waters of BPD with greater resilience and emotional regulation. In this journey of self-discovery, compassion becomes the anchor, guiding towards a place of greater stability and authentic connection.

Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCT, RCC, CCC, ATR-P
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we offer specialized support for individuals grappling with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and dissociative symptoms often associated with BPD or Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). Our therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in relational dynamics, drawing from attachment theory, and somatic practices to address the complexities of these conditions.
For individuals with BPD, we understand the challenges of managing intense emotions, unstable relationships, and difficulties with self-identity. Our relational-focused therapy places a strong emphasis on building a secure therapeutic alliance, fostering a safe and trusting space where clients can explore their emotions, thoughts, and relational patterns without judgment.
Dissociation, a common feature of BPD and C-PTSD, can present significant barriers to self-awareness and emotional regulation. Through somatic therapy techniques, we help clients reconnect with their bodies, facilitating a deeper understanding of how trauma is held on a physiological level. By incorporating somatic interventions, we aim to support individuals in regulating their nervous systems, grounding themselves in the present moment, and developing a greater sense of coherence and embodiment.
Our integrative approach blends relational attunement with somatic interventions to address the intersecting challenges of BPD and dissociation. By exploring the underlying attachment patterns and body-based responses, we collaborate with clients to navigate the complexities of emotional dysregulation and dissociative experiences. Through a compassionate and holistic framework, we work towards enhancing self-awareness, fostering emotional resilience, and promoting long-lasting healing and growth.
Our goal is to provide a supportive and affirming space where individuals with BPD and dissociation can find understanding, acceptance, and transformative healing. We are dedicated to supporting our clients on their journey towards reclaiming agency, restoring inner balance, and cultivating a greater sense of wholeness and well-being.
