Registered Psychotherapist, MCP, RCC, CCC
Using Schema Therapy, I support clients with Borderline Personality Disorder. We start with initial assessments and follow up at three months to monitor progress. Those I've supported with BPD have achieved lasting changes in emotional regulation and behavioural control during this period through weekly counselling sessions.

Ajay Sahota
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a condition where you have challenges controlling emotions. You feel emotions more intensely and for longer than the average person.
Strong emotions (guilt, shame, anxiety, etc.) can be very painful and you may become angry easily. It is often difficult to feel positive emotions, like happiness and it can feel impossible to control your emotions. Relationships with your family and friends are affected by these emotions, and feelings of loneliness and isolation are a result.
When emotions run your life, you can experience extra challenges, such as:
Overreacting
Mood swings
Frequent crises
Suicidal thoughts and destructive behaviour
Impulsiveness
Substance misuse
Relationship problems
Fear of abandonment
Are these challenges familiar? Have you done a counselling program in the past to address these issues but would like to continue counselling?
The good news is that I have been providing counselling to individuals, and their partners/family members, who struggle with BPD and other challenges since 2015. I have experience helping people learn new skills and to change behaviours and take control of their lives.
Counselling can help you understand BPD and provide you with emotional support, skills and training to manage your emotions and improve your relationships with loved ones.

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional Psychologist (P7619) in Alberta, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) for the rest of Canada
Living with borderline personality disorder (BPD) is extremely challenging. Individuals who suffer with BPD experience intense emotional turmoil, unstable relationships, and a fragile sense of self. Mood swings, impulsivity, and self-destructive behaviors can lead to tumultuous interpersonal relationships and difficulties in daily life. People with BPD often struggle with feelings of emptiness, fear of abandonment, and a distorted self-image. Managing BPD entails engaging with a helper who understands their situation, commitment to developing coping skills that includes accepting support that may include medication. Despite challenges, with treatment and support, individuals with BPD can manage and lead fulfilling lives. Daniel has several close family members with BPD, and he understands both the struggles they face and those experienced by their loved ones.
