These conversations are conducted with sensitivity, warmth and understanding in the confidential space of our consulting rooms or if preferred via Telehealth.

Living with the traits often labelled as “personality disorders” can feel overwhelming, especially when past experiences have led to shame, disconnection, or difficulty trusting others. At The Inner Collective, we look beyond labels to understand the impact of your early relationships, life experiences, and the strategies you’ve used to cope. Using approaches like DBT, Schema Therapy, and Compassion-Focused Therapy, we support you to build emotional safety, self-understanding, and more fulfilling relationships—at your pace, and in your own way.

Dr Israel Berger
Therapist, MBBS, FRANZCP, PGCert(Youth Mental Health), MPsych, PhD(Psych), CCTP
I have the most experience working with people who have borderline personality disorder (BPD), although I have some experience with people who have other personality disorder diagnoses. BPD affects everyone differently. Many people with BPD have experienced severe trauma and may also experience PTSD, but not everyone. Regardless of your diagnosis, I am here to hear your story and help you to develop better relationships, improve responses to distress, and gain more peace in life.

Online in Canberra, ACT Australian Capital Territory
Canberra is Australia's purpose-built capital city and home to the federal public service, creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including burnout, moral injury, and careers lived in close proximity to political power. The city has the highest median income and education level of any Australian capital, with a population generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Canberra Hospital provides institutional mental health services alongside a well-established private practice community serving the inner south, Belconnen, and Tuggeranong. A recurring theme across many Canberra practices is the tension between personal values and the constraints of institutional work — a dynamic that cuts across much of the city's therapy culture.
