BPD, part 2: schema therapy and how the approaches compare
The second episode on borderline personality disorder (BPD): Jeffrey Young's schema therapy, with its schemas, modes and techniques, and what head-to-head trials and meta-analyses say about DBT (dialectical behaviour therapy), MBT (mentalisation-based treatment), TFP (transference-focused psychotherapy), STEPPS (a group skills programme that involves people close to the client), CBT-PD (CBT for personality disorders) and GPM (good psychiatric management). Why it matters to you: you'll see that no therapy brand comes out on top, and learn which features mark good treatment. This is education, not therapy or diagnosis.
