Living with the traits often labelled as “personality disorders” can feel overwhelming, especially when past experiences have led to shame, disconnection, or difficulty trusting others. At The Inner Collective, we look beyond labels to understand the impact of your early relationships, life experiences, and the strategies you’ve used to cope. Using approaches like DBT, Schema Therapy, and Compassion-Focused Therapy, we support you to build emotional safety, self-understanding, and more fulfilling relationships—at your pace, and in your own way.

Personality Disorders
Dr Israel Berger
Therapist, MBBS, FRANZCP, PGCert(Youth Mental Health), MPsych, PhD(Psych), CCTP
I have the most experience working with people who have borderline personality disorder (BPD), although I have some experience with people who have other personality disorder diagnoses. BPD affects everyone differently. Many people with BPD have experienced severe trauma and may also experience PTSD, but not everyone. Regardless of your diagnosis, I am here to hear your story and help you to develop better relationships, improve responses to distress, and gain more peace in life.

Personality Disorders
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in nursing and mental health, I have a good understanding of personality disorders and how they impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand personality disorder better, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the often underlying negative experiences held within the subconscious brain that support the negative personality traits you wish to change. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your personality disorder struggles to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
