Borderline Personality Disorder
Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
BPD can include self-image problems, difficulty managing emotions and behaviours, and patterns of unstable relationships. Those who struggle with BPD often experience intense fear about being abandoned and suffer from intense mood swings and impulsiveness that push others away, even when the individual longs most for a loving and stable relationship. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) is a good treatment option. The most important is that I will provide you a safe, supportive, and understanding environment where we can work together through the issues.

Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCT, RCC, CCC, ATR-P
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we offer specialized support for individuals grappling with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and dissociative symptoms often associated with BPD or Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). Our therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in relational dynamics, drawing from attachment theory, and somatic practices to address the complexities of these conditions.
For individuals with BPD, we understand the challenges of managing intense emotions, unstable relationships, and difficulties with self-identity. Our relational-focused therapy places a strong emphasis on building a secure therapeutic alliance, fostering a safe and trusting space where clients can explore their emotions, thoughts, and relational patterns without judgment.
Dissociation, a common feature of BPD and C-PTSD, can present significant barriers to self-awareness and emotional regulation. Through somatic therapy techniques, we help clients reconnect with their bodies, facilitating a deeper understanding of how trauma is held on a physiological level. By incorporating somatic interventions, we aim to support individuals in regulating their nervous systems, grounding themselves in the present moment, and developing a greater sense of coherence and embodiment.
Our integrative approach blends relational attunement with somatic interventions to address the intersecting challenges of BPD and dissociation. By exploring the underlying attachment patterns and body-based responses, we collaborate with clients to navigate the complexities of emotional dysregulation and dissociative experiences. Through a compassionate and holistic framework, we work towards enhancing self-awareness, fostering emotional resilience, and promoting long-lasting healing and growth.
Our goal is to provide a supportive and affirming space where individuals with BPD and dissociation can find understanding, acceptance, and transformative healing. We are dedicated to supporting our clients on their journey towards reclaiming agency, restoring inner balance, and cultivating a greater sense of wholeness and well-being.
