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.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you have been told you have a personality disorder, or you recognize long-standing patterns that affect your relationships, emotions, and self-image, you may feel discouraged or misunderstood. You might notice recurring conflict, difficulty trusting others, intense emotional reactions, or rigid coping patterns that once protected you but now create strain.
At Selah Counselling, we approach personality disorders with respect and clinical care. These patterns often developed over time as adaptations to early experiences, attachment wounds, or chronic stress. They are not a reflection of your worth. Together, we work to increase self-awareness, strengthen emotional regulation, build healthier relational skills, and gently challenge patterns that no longer serve you. Change takes time and consistency, but growth is possible within a safe therapeutic relationship where you are seen with both honesty and compassion.

Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
From my work with people both functional and dysfunctional, and from the perspectives of conscious and subconscious intentions, I believe we are composed of multiple personalities that alternatively control us in reaction to our environment. That being said, the crucial link between how we think and how we act is how we perceive. Personality disorders are a combination of distorted perceptions and inappropriate reactions. After all, it's your behavior that determines how you're seen.
Your behavior is a map of how you perceive and interpret. Your behavior is a symptom, not a dysfunction. This is why I object to cognitive behavioral therapies that considers normal behavior to be the goal, and anything that makes others see you as normal to be a success. This is a bandage over an unhealed wound.
It is nearly impossible to change your personality unless you want to. Even then, your habits and attachments present roadblocks. It takes real commitment and a creative vision to drop old patterns and incubate new ones. And when I say "creative," I mean that you have to reinvent yourself. You will need skillful and unbiased support from someone who is not attached to your past and present.
It is a fundamental truth that you cannot appreciate change before you understand it. You will need to become your own warrior, advocate, and politician in beating back old urges, compulsions, regrets, and injuries. Memories are not the truth, and memories change as you become less reliant on them. All of this happens below your cognitive behavior, reasoning, and established patterns.
You can change your personality. What now appear as disorders are compensations for twisted habits, injured memories, learned perceptions, and unconscious triggers. You can change these if you want to. Find enough love for and faith in yourself to do what is essential in the long term. Drop your coping strategies and aim for something greater than what you can see.
