Understanding Personality Disorders
at Evolving Minds

Personality disorders involve enduring patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating that can feel difficult to shift. These patterns often impact emotional regulation, self-esteem and relationships, making daily life feel more stressful or disconnected than it needs to be.

​

You may find yourself stuck in cycles of emotional distress, instability, or behaviours like self-harm, even when you're trying your best. These experiences can make it challenging to form and maintain healthy relationships. With the right therapeutic support, it is possible to better understand these patterns, build emotional resilience and develop healthier, more flexible ways of coping.

​

At Evolving Minds Counselling, we offer compassionate, evidence-based therapy for a range of personality disorders. Our clinicians provide support for presentations including borderline personality disorder, avoidant personality disorder, and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder. Many clients also experience co-occurring concerns such as anxiety, depression, or complex trauma, which we address as part of a holistic and integrated approach to care.

​

Our experienced clinicians draw on a range of evidence based therapies, including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and mindfulness-based approaches. We tailor your therapy to meet your needs, goals, and preferences.
