EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
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.

Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
BPD can include self-image problems, difficulty managing emotions and behaviours, and patterns of unstable relationships. Those who struggle with BPD often experience intense fear about being abandoned and suffer from intense mood swings and impulsiveness that push others away, even when the individual longs most for a loving and stable relationship. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) is a good treatment option. The most important is that I will provide you a safe, supportive, and understanding environment where we can work together through the issues.
