Personality Disorders
Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
Personality disorder has been discussed in the sections on BPD as well as NPD. As much as I am not a fan of labels, I do believe in the importance in assisting clients in working through the issues brought on by their individual traits which may be preventing keeping them stuck. With over 20 years successfully assisting people overcome whatever obstacles they are facing, so that they can live more fully, it would be my pleasure to help.

Personality Disorders
True Health Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Advanced Nurse Psychotherapist RN, MN
I specialize in helping individuals with personality disorders heal by reframing these patterns as survival strategies born from long-term trauma and dysfunctional relationships, not as something inherently wrong. My approach focuses on understanding the behaviours and defences, like shame, fear, or emotional walls-that shaped your personality to cope with past environments. Together, we explore these patterns, such as those seen in borderline or narcissistic personality types, and work on healing deep attachment pain, shame, and neglect. By grieving and releasing these core wounds, we transform the ego-driven survival mechanisms, allowing your authentic self to emerge. In an empathetic, non-judgmental space, we unravel these layers of the created self, fostering lasting change and return to the soul self.

Kingston is a historic Ontario city at the junction of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, home to Queen's University—one of Canada's leading universities—the Royal Military College of Canada, and an unusually high concentration of federal correctional institutions, which together shape a distinctive community with university, military, and criminal justice populations all coexisting in a relatively small city. Queen's University's student mental health services are a major resource, and the Royal Military College's close-knit military community creates specific needs around service identity, transition, and trauma. The correctional sector workforce—correctional officers, administrators, and support staff at Kingston's several federal penitentiaries—faces unique occupational stress and trauma exposure that is an important dimension of the local mental health landscape. Common therapy concerns include student wellbeing and academic pressure at Queen's, military identity and transition, correctional sector occupational trauma, anxiety, depression, and the identity challenges of a city with an unusually complex and layered community character.
