Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Living with borderline personality disorder (BPD) is extremely challenging. Individuals who suffer with BPD experience intense emotional turmoil, unstable relationships, and a fragile sense of self. Mood swings, impulsivity, and self-destructive behaviors can lead to tumultuous interpersonal relationships and difficulties in daily life. People with BPD often struggle with feelings of emptiness, fear of abandonment, and a distorted self-image. Managing BPD entails engaging with a helper who understands their situation, commitment to developing coping skills that includes accepting support that may include medication. Despite challenges, with treatment and support, individuals with BPD can manage and lead fulfilling lives. Daniel has several close family members with BPD, and he understands both the struggles they face and those experienced by their loved ones.

Borderline Personality Disorder
EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) unveils a complex interplay of emotional wounds and relational dynamics. It is frequently the result of intense feelings of instability and abandonment fear, which have their roots in early attachment experiences. Trauma, whether explicit or implicit, further shapes the landscape, deepening the scars of relational ruptures. Individuals with BPD may oscillate between intense feelings of love and rage, seeking validation and connection yet fearing rejection and betrayal.
BPD reflects a desperate longing for secure attachments, juxtaposed with a profound fear of engulfment or abandonment. Therapy becomes a journey of unraveling these intricate patterns, forging new pathways of understanding and healing. By cultivating self-awareness and fostering secure relationships, individuals can learn to navigate the turbulent waters of BPD with greater resilience and emotional regulation. In this journey of self-discovery, compassion becomes the anchor, guiding towards a place of greater stability and authentic connection.
