Description

The book was first published in Dutch by Uitgeverij Nieuwezijds - this book is an English language translation, translated from the original Dutch Language version by Jolijn Drost. The book offers a conceptual model of BPD, a treatment model and an array of methods and techniques for treating BPD clients. It covers treatment planning, the therapeutic relationships, cognitive and behavioral techniques, specific strategies, behavioral pattern breaking and the termination of therapy. The appendices contain handouts for patients including a biographical diary, forms for homework assignments and problem solving and a positive self statement log.

Reviews

"Schema Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder is well translated, clearly written, and easy to read. The straightforward instructions for using this method are broken down into chapters describing the therapeutic relationship; experiential, cognitive, and behavioral techniques; and specific methods for treating the various schema modes, which include detached protector, abandoned/abused child, angry/impulsive child, punitive parent, and healthy adult. The techniques are well illustrated throughout." (PsycCRITIQUES, March 2010) "This is an excellent and comprehensive guide." (Therapy Today, November 2009)
