Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) in Thunder Bay
Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder
Borderline Personality Disorder can make it difficult to regulate emotions, often creating cycles of closeness and distance in relationships. In Thunder Bay, where natural beauty meets a strong sense of independence, many people find it challenging to ask for help even when emotional struggles feel overwhelming.
Therapy offers a nonjudgmental, supportive space to explore your emotions and build the tools you need to create balance and stability.
If stress or anxiety are also part of your experience, our stress and burnout and anxiety therapy pages may be helpful.
How Therapy Can Help
Our therapists use evidence-based treatments that encourage both understanding and change:
-
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT): Strengthen mindfulness and emotion-regulation.
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Reframe negative thoughts and behaviours.
-
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): Heal from past trauma that impacts emotional stability.
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Build acceptance and align with your values.
We offer both individual and group therapy for BPD. Many Thunder Bay clients pair sessions with our DBT Skills Group to practice new coping strategies and connect with others on a similar path.
Learn more on our DBT Skills Group page.
Everyday Supports
-
