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.

Nicole Moss
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of BPD on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
The BPD and Trauma Connection Several trauma survivors have been diagnosed by other professionals with BPD , even though it is thought to be genetic in some cases. I have had extensive experience dealing with those who have been affected by this disorder due to the abuse or neglect they sustained during childhood. As a Mental Health Worker/Counsellor, on Ottawa's Victim Quick Response List for the past 9 years, I have successfully worked with over hundreds of Victim Service clients, in such areas as, child abuse, sexual trauma and exploitation including rape, incest, being sex trafficked, along with intimate partner violence.
Individuals with BPD reflect an attachment injury leading them to the formulation of implausible perceptions and conclusions about what other people’s actions and behaviors. Their distorted fashion of interpretation leads them to believe that they cannot trust anyone as this would only involve disappointment. As a child, when their caregiver did not show up for them, they tried desperately to adapt repeatedly, however were unsuccessful and learned that this involves too much energy and does not work. They continue to experience life as a child, as they have been left with these intense perspectives and overwhelming emotions which are turned up to maximum volume on much of what they feel. When these states become traits, they cause profound distress. Rejection sensitivity is a key feature of this disorder resulting in interpersonal difficulties, along with failed relationships characterized by extreme feelings of emptiness, abandonment, and lack of identity. All these behaviors further lead to the tendency for those around them to feel that they are walking on eggshells.
I often used both experiential inner child work in addition to Dialectical Behavior Skills to address the issues involved in this disorder.
The role of counselling for those with BPD is to start to uncover painful emotional wounds and feelings which they have disconnected from for years. Rather than sitting with and experiencing their feelings clients with BPD have been experts in covering, hiding, or dissociating from them. Interventions involving DBT-Dialectic Behavior Therapy includes skills training connected to Mindfulness, Emotion Regulation(Anger management), and Distress Tolerance, which is comprised of stress management, conflict resolution as well as cognitive behavior therapy.
While it has taken considerable time, I have helped many with this process through patience, understanding and validation of what they had been through. I help to provide light at the end of this dark tunnel .

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Living with BPD often means feeling everything at maximum volume: emotions that hit like waves, relationships that swing between closeness and fear of abandonment, and an unstable sense of who you are underneath it all. It's an exhausting way to live, and it's so often met with judgment instead of understanding. That changes here. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space where your intensity is not too much, and where we work together to make sense of your emotional world rather than pathologize it. Drawing on approaches like DBT, the goal isn't just crisis management, it's to genuinely understand yourself, build skills that steady your emotions and relationships, and develop a more solid, compassionate sense of who you are. Together we'll work toward feeling more regulated, more secure in your connections, and more equipped to build a life that feels worth living.

BPD is one of the most misunderstood and stigmatized diagnoses in mental health. From the inside, it can mean intense emotional pain, fear of abandonment, unstable relationships, an unstable sense of self, impulsive behaviours, or chronic emptiness. Many people carry deep shame about the diagnosis or have felt judged in past therapy. Effective BPD therapy begins with genuine safety and non-judgment. Together, we’ll understand the patterns behind your responses and build practical skills in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and navigating relationships more effectively.

Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
DBT is an evidence-based treatment model created to treat Borderline Personality Disorder. This is because those with BPD tend to be more sensitive to emotions, or more reactive to emotions, have a slower return to baseline. As unique and different you may feel, I can help with this modality for its range.

Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a complex and often misunderstood condition, characterized by emotional instability, impulsive behaviors, and significant challenges in interpersonal relationships. These emotional fluctuations can leave you feeling in a constant state of dysregulation, affecting your thoughts, moods, and behaviors. My approach to working with BPD is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), where we explore the different emotional parts that emerge in order to better understand their origins and purposes. Given the complexity and stigma surrounding BPD, it's essential to explore the underlying factors contributing to your experience, including early childhood relationships and current relational patterns. Together, we will work toward gradually rebuilding your sense of self and addressing any confusion about your view of self and your view of others. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.
