Personality Disorders
Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Personality disorders can shape the way you perceive and relate to others, often leading to emotional turmoil and strained relationships. Together, we’ll explore the origin of these patterns and how they impact your life. Using a blend of psychodynamic and trauma-informed techniques, we’ll work to develop self-awareness, emotional regulation, and more fulfilling ways of relating to others. I’ll support you in understanding your needs and finding healthier, more effective ways to navigate the world.

Personality Disorders
Kendra Anselmo Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Personality patterns often develop as ways of protecting yourself, navigating relationships, and responding to past experiences. Therapy can help you better understand your emotions, relational patterns, and protective parts while building greater self-compassion, emotional regulation, and a more connected sense of self. You are more than your diagnosis, and healing is possible through deeper understanding and support.

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.
