Volatile, hostile, exasperating, and frequently in crisis, individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) leave everyone in their path confused, frustrated, or even frightened.
In therapy, clients with BPD quickly wear you out as they attempt to undermine therapeutic boundaries and turn therapy into an endless series of crises to manage.
You’re left feeling frustrated and ineffective as your treatment efforts fall short again and again with clients who find comfort in chaos.
But it doesn’t need to be this way!
In this recording, Dr. Gregory W. Lester will guide you through cutting-edge methods, empirically-proven to manage and treat the behaviour of this often-bewildering client population.
Watch him as he reveals critical details on the successful treatment of BPD that you’ve never heard before.
And not only do the unique treatment strategies he’ll share work, but his expert guidance will give you the confidence you need to more skillfully calm down escalations, reduce self-harming behaviours, and diminish crises at your very next session.
