BPD
Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a complex and often misunderstood condition, characterized by emotional instability, impulsive behaviors, and significant challenges in interpersonal relationships. These emotional fluctuations can leave you feeling in a constant state of dysregulation, affecting your thoughts, moods, and behaviors. My approach to working with BPD is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), where we explore the different emotional parts that emerge in order to better understand their origins and purposes. Given the complexity and stigma surrounding BPD, it's essential to explore the underlying factors contributing to your experience, including early childhood relationships and current relational patterns. Together, we will work toward gradually rebuilding your sense of self and addressing any confusion about your view of self and your view of others.

Svetlana Levinta
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MEd
Therapy with those who experience the emotional intensity often connected with Borderline Personality Disorder requires a calm, steady presence and safe, nonjudgemental environment.
I focus on building a consistent, reliable therapeutic relationship where these clients can feel safe enough to explore their inner world at their own pace. I don’t rush insight or push for change before a person is ready. Instead, I offer a calm, grounded atmosphere that helps clients learn to recognize their emotions, understand their triggers, and develop a more stable sense of self.
Over time, we work together to create healthier patterns in relationships, strengthen emotional regulation, and build a life that feels more connected, meaningful, and manageable. My approach is gentle, consistent, and deeply respectful of each person’s lived experience.

Rochelle Aljammas (Trauma, Relationship, BPD)
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., B.A. (Hons)
Living with BPD can feel intense, confusing, and isolating. If your goals surround emotional dysregulation, unstable relationships, identity instability, and impulsivity. I use DBT, parts work (like IFS), and other tools to increase stability, self‑compassion, and safer relational patterns. My aim is not to “fix” you, but to help you understand the parts of you that are hurting and support you in integrating them.

Barrie is a city on Kempenfelt Bay of Lake Simcoe north of Toronto that has become one of Ontario's fastest-growing communities as families and professionals seek more affordable housing within commuting distance of the city, and the resulting rapid growth has created both rising demand for therapy and the particular challenges of a community still building its social infrastructure. Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre provides hospital-based mental health services, and Georgian College contributes to the local supply of trained counsellors through its health and wellness programs. The proximity to Muskoka cottage country and year-round outdoor recreation options give the city a quality-of-life appeal, though cold winters and long commutes to Toronto are among the stressors residents bring to therapy. Common therapy concerns include commuter stress, relocation and transition challenges, seasonal affective disorder, and the pressures of family life in a rapidly changing community.
