Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RP (Qualifying)
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can bring intense emotions and unstable relationships, but with the right support, healing is possible. I specialize in BPD therapy, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients develop emotional regulation skills and build healthier relationships. My approach focuses on understanding the core challenges of BPD, including impulsivity, self-image struggles, and emotional instability, while empowering clients to embrace self-compassion and create lasting change. If you’re seeking support for BPD, I’m here to help you navigate your journey toward emotional balance and a fulfilling life.

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can feel disorienting. If you're struggling with intense emotions, relationship difficulties, or self-image issues, therapy can provide the tools to create lasting change. My trauma-informed approach integrates techniques like DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) to help you manage emotions, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and rebuild trust in yourself. Together, we can explore the origins of your experiences and work to reshape patterns of behaviour to promote healing and growth.
In our work together, I prioritize creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely—without fear of criticism or rejection. I believe in the importance of being able to explore your emotions and thoughts openly, while working collaboratively to understand and connect the different parts of yourself. This process is all about building self-trust and fostering a sense of acceptance, so you can feel safe within yourself. Our work together focuses on helping you navigate emotional intensity, strengthening your sense of self, and creating healthier, more balanced relationships.

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.
