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.

I personally understand BPD’s emotional storms in relationships—fear of abandonment, self-doubt, or people-pleasing with others. With lived experience, I help you heal through:
Complex trauma-informed DBT: Regulate emotions effectively, while also healing core relationship wounds.
Somatic Experiencing and Breathwork: Release trauma through your emotional nervous system.
Gestalt Therapy: Embrace courage and authenticity.
Shadow Work: Uncover hidden relationship patterns and increase self-awareness.
Faith-Based Healing: Find peace and trust yourself.
My holistic, integrative, faith-guided approach and expertise in BPD, CPTSD, and narcissistic abuse offer a safe and empathetic space to reclaim your voice, true self and emotional stability. I’ve helped clients globally find soulful healing and trust their true selves. If you've been missing something in therapy and it hasn't worked, I invite you to book your free consultation. I'll help you come back home to your soul.

Barzin Hosseini Rad
Registered Psychotherapist, Centre for Training of Psychotherapists Diploma
Living with BPD is akin to being in a dark, locked room and being tossed violently around the walls, floor, and ceiling. With relationships, you live in constant fear that those you care about will abandon you. You leave them before they can leave you and hurt you terribly. People who struggle with BPD are not manipulative or attention-seeking. They are suffering and have never been given the tools to communicate their pain effectively through words, so they turn to self-destructive behaviours.

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.

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can feel disorienting. If you're struggling with intense emotions, relationship difficulties, or self-image issues, therapy can provide the tools to create lasting change. My trauma-informed approach integrates techniques like DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) to help you manage emotions, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and rebuild trust in yourself. Together, we can explore the origins of your experiences and work to reshape patterns of behaviour to promote healing and growth.
In our work together, I prioritize creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely—without fear of criticism or rejection. I believe in the importance of being able to explore your emotions and thoughts openly, while working collaboratively to understand and connect the different parts of yourself. This process is all about building self-trust and fostering a sense of acceptance, so you can feel safe within yourself. Our work together focuses on helping you navigate emotional intensity, strengthening your sense of self, and creating healthier, more balanced relationships.

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.
