Illume Psychology is a boutique psychology practice that offers a nurturing space to meaningfully and collaboratively work through your inner troubles. A diagnosis of personality disorder can be confusing and necessitates the thoughtful and skilled attention of a dedicated therapist to provide support, help make sense of past experiences and bring to awareness problematic patterns of thought and behaviour to empower you to create sustained change in your life.
The term personality disorders are frequently used, often out of context, in conversation to refer to a group of medical conditions. There is a lot of stigma and misunderstanding around this term. I have worked with individuals who have these conditions, and I have witnessed how they can be very challenging to manage.
