Borderline personality disorder is a multidimensional disorder best considered as severe personality dysfunction. Around 2% of the population are thought to meet the criteria for the disorder, with approximately 1 in 10,000 people experiencing the most severe difficulties. This group places a disproportionate burden on mental health services.
Once seen as 'untreatable,' patients with borderline personality disorder are all too often mistreated and misdiagnosed, resulting in prolonged and unhelpful relationships with support services, and taxing patients and clinicians alike.
Borderline Personality Disorder: Foundations of Treatment draws on the latest research and clinical experience to provide an accessible and practical summary of the options for clinical management and treatment. It provides hope and evidence that sufferers can be treated effectively and successfully.
The book presents a pragmatic approach to care and should be read by all members of the mental health team including psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, counsellors, mental health nurses and social workers.
