Borderline Personality Disorder
Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Living with borderline personality disorder (BPD) can be profoundly challenging. Those affected often endure intense emotional turbulence, unstable relationships, and a fragile or shifting sense of self. Rapid mood swings, impulsivity, and self-destructive behaviors frequently disrupt their personal lives, creating cycles of conflict and emotional pain. Many individuals with BPD grapple with chronic feelings of emptiness, an overwhelming fear of abandonment, and a distorted self-image that makes it difficult to trust themselves or others.
Managing BPD requires more than willpower—it demands compassionate support, a strong therapeutic alliance, and the development of effective coping strategies. This often includes a combination of therapy, skill-building, and, when appropriate, medication. With the right treatment and support, people with BPD can gain greater emotional stability and go on to lead meaningful, connected lives.
Daniel understands this journey intimately. Several of his close family members live with BPD, giving him deep personal insight into both the daily struggles individuals face and the emotional toll it takes on their loved ones. His empathy, grounded in experience, informs his commitment to helping others navigate the complexities of this condition with respect, patience, and hope.
Daniel offers both brief screening for borderline personality disorder (BPD) and comprehensive, customized assessments that evaluate a wide range of personality disorders, trauma, and commonly co-occurring concerns. He welcomes inquiries regarding this and other psychological testing services he provides.

Free matching calls available to help match you with the best therapist for your unique needs. BPD is strongly linked to early childhood trauma and attachment concerns and we treat BPD with this in mind, utilizing specialized treatments that address the impacts of trauma and dissociation.

We address these concerns using specialized modalities, including EMDR, ART, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Parts Therapy.

Borderline Personality Disorder
Angela Fawcett
Counsellor/Therapist, BSW, MSW, RSW
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most misunderstood mental health diagnoses, yet it is also highly treatable. People living with BPD often experience emotions intensely, making the world feel overwhelming and relationships feel confusing, dysregulating, or even frightening. Beneath these struggles is often a deep longing for connection, stability, and understanding. I draw on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and other evidence-based approaches to help clients build skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, self-compassion, and healthier relationship patterns. With the right support, people can learn to regulate emotions, build secure relationships, strengthen their sense of self, and create meaningful, fulfilling lives. Recovery is possible, and many individuals with BPD experience significant healing and lasting change.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
If relationships feel like an endless cycle of clinging and pushing away, if you're terrified of being left yet somehow always end up alone, if emptiness follows you no matter who's in your life—you're not broken, you're responding to deep wounds. I understand these patterns intimately and will help you see them with clarity and compassion rather than shame. Together, we'll explore where the fear of abandonment began, learn to regulate the panic that drives relationship chaos, and build genuine self-trust that doesn't depend on others' presence. You'll discover that the stability you've been seeking outside yourself can grow within.
