Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Living with a personality disorder (PD) can be deeply challenging and distressing. These individuals experience chronic difficulties in how they perceive themselves and relate to others, leading to unstable emotions, behaviors, and relationships. This instability can cause intense feelings of emptiness, fear of abandonment, and identity disturbance. Interpersonal conflicts and difficulty maintaining employment or stable housing are common. People with PDs face stigma and misunderstanding, which can exacerbate feelings of isolation and shame. Despite these challenges, with appropriate treatment that includes therapy and possibly medication, can help them to manage and improve their quality of life. Sorting out conflict in life, defining personal identity and intent, developing coping skills, establishing healthy boundaries, and building supportive relationships are essential aspects of recovery. Daniel is a Certified Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD).

Although various types of personality disorders exist one commonality is that they involve rigid and unhealthy thinking patterns, which adversely affects quality of life and satisfaction. The treatment plan for somebody with a personality disorder will largely depend on the unique circumstance of the client. I would further like to explore what your symptoms are, how they are getting in the way of living a rich and fulfilling life, and what changes you would like to see within yourself.

If you would like to explore further feel free to contact me so that we can devise a treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs. It is never too late to make a positive change in your life.
