Amanda Neves Therapy + Associates
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
We understand Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) as deeply rooted in attachment wounds and relational patterns. Our approach is trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential, helping clients regulate intense emotions, navigate relationships, and cultivate self-compassion.
We also view BPD through a feminist lens, acknowledging the societal pressures, gendered expectations, and relational dynamics that often shape emotional experiences. Using Attachment-Focused Therapy, AEDP, and IFS, we provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore triggers, heal relational patterns, and build practical tools for resilience, empowerment, and authentic connection. We offer in-person therapy in Toronto and virtual sessions across Ontario to ensure care is accessible wherever you are. Our goal is to help clients move from emotional overwhelm to grounded self-understanding, healthier relationships, and lasting emotional empowerment.

Azin Heydari
Registered Psychotherapist, RP; MA
I work with clients who have BPD using a compassionate, consistent, trauma-informed and relational method that combines nervous-system regulation, attachment theory, and practical emotion regulation techniques. We collaboratively examine the underlying needs behind strong emotions and relationship patterns, as well as how self-compassion can reduce shame related to this condition. My aim is to support you in developing inner stability, setting healthier boundaries, a clearer sense of self, and the confidence around the capacity to self-regulate.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Borderline personality disorder can feel incredibly painful, isolating, confusing and shameful. I have extensive training and experience using the gold-star BPD treatment, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), to help you navigate crisis without making it worse, manage your emotions and rebuild your relationships with others and yourself. I integrate narrative therapy techniques to help you rewrite your story about yourself and heal from the stigma and chronic invalidation that often accompanies this diagnosis.

Simona Ilieva
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
While I do not support clients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), at our clinic, Psychotherapy Collective, we have therapists who are properly positioned to support you. BDP 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. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation with Ashley Berger or Tanya Beach, two therapists on our team at Psychotherapy Collective who are well positioned to support you. https://www.psychotherapycollective.ca/our-team

Yasmin Rombola-Bacchus
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
DBT is an evidence-based treatment model created to treat Borderline Personality Disorder. This is because those with BPD tend to be more sensitive to emotions, or more reactive to emotions, have a slower return to baseline. As unique and different you may feel, I can help with this modality for its range.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
You are not “too much”—you’ve just carried too much for too long.
If you live with intense emotions, fear of abandonment, or feel like you’re constantly swinging between extremes, you’re not broken—you’re doing your best to survive with a system that’s been deeply overwhelmed. I specialize in working with people who’ve been labeled with BPD and help them understand their internal world with more compassion and clarity. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently connect with the parts of you that protect, react, and long for love—so healing can happen at the root. You don’t have to keep living in chaos or self-blame. There is a path toward stability, connection, and a deeper sense of Self.

Nicole Moss
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of BPD on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Toronto is one of the most multicultural cities in the world, and its therapy landscape reflects this extraordinary diversity, with practitioners representing hundreds of cultural backgrounds and dozens of languages. The city's high cost of living and intensely competitive professional environment drive demand for therapists addressing financial anxiety, burnout, and the psychological pressures of ambitious urban life. CAMH — the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health — is Canada's largest mental health and addiction teaching hospital, providing major institutional resources alongside Toronto's vast private practice and counselling community. Ontario's OHIP coverage is limited for psychotherapy, so many residents use extended health benefits or pay out of pocket to access private therapy.
