Nicholas Breitenbach
Psychologist, R. Psych, CST, MA, BA
I support clients dealing with personality-related patterns that impact emotions, relationships, and self-image—like intense mood shifts, fear of abandonment, impulsivity, shutdown, or chronic conflict. My approach is compassionate and structured, helping you understand the why behind patterns while building practical skills for stability, boundaries, and healthier connection. We focus on reducing shame, increasing self-awareness, and creating changes that actually hold up outside the therapy room—especially in close relationships where things tend to flare up.

Jeff Russon
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, RCSW
Whether you’ve been given a personality disorder diagnosis or simply recognize patterns of intense emotions, stormy relationships or a shaky sense of who you are, you deserve care that sees the whole person, not a label. I offer a steady, non-judgmental relationship where we build skills for riding out big emotions, explore how earlier experiences shaped the patterns you live with now, and practice new ways of relating to yourself and others. This kind of change takes time, and we’ll go at your pace.

Jenn Wushke
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW., RSW., RCSW., Approved Clinical Supervisor
Personality Disorders are often painfully rigid or chaotic parts of ourselves that get in the way of our goals and dreams. We can compassionately work with these parts to find better, healthier ways to meet our needs and keep ourselves safe. Schema, Hakomi, ACT and Expressive Arts Therapy combine to build insight, support and change for those struggling with personality disorders.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
A diagnosis of a personality disorder can sometimes bring clarity, but it can also leave people feeling reduced to a label or defined by their most difficult patterns. I take a non-pathologizing approach, viewing longstanding emotional and relational patterns as understandable adaptations that developed in response to particular experiences, needs, and environments. Together, we can explore these patterns with curiosity rather than shame, including how they affect relationships, self-worth, trust, boundaries, and emotional regulation. The goal is not to erase parts of who you are, but to build greater awareness, flexibility, self-compassion, and choice in how you relate to yourself and others.
