Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
I provide a steady, nonjudgmental space for working with personality challenges—patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating that cause distress or disrupt relationships. I’ll help you understand how these patterns developed, build insight and emotional regulation skills, and practice healthier ways of connecting with others. Using a collaborative, paced approach, I’ll support you in reducing conflict, improving self-awareness, and creating more flexible, fulfilling ways of living.

Wayne Dewhurst
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CAMFT
Narcissistic Personality Disorder can create significant challenges in relationships, communication, emotional regulation, and a person's understanding of themselves and others. I help clients explore the patterns underlying these difficulties while developing greater self-awareness and healthier ways of relating. My work can also support partners and family members who are trying to understand and navigate the impact of these relationship dynamics.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
If you've been told you have a personality disorder—or suspect you might—you've likely spent years feeling misunderstood, stigmatized, or blamed for patterns you don't know how to change. These aren't character flaws; they're trauma responses that became your survival blueprint. Once we've built trust, we'll explore how your early experiences shaped how you see yourself, others, and relationships. You'll receive deep understanding for the specific symptoms you struggle with—the emotional intensity, the relationship chaos, the identity confusion. Through compassionate modeling and support, you'll learn new patterns, regulate what feels uncontrollable, and discover that change is possible. You're not broken; you're surviving.
