Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cognitive-behavioral treatment for borderline personality disorder that is shorter and less intense than existing treatments. The hope is that this will be more effective for the majority of people with BPD who don't have severe symptoms.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD) who haven't had extensive cognitive behavioral therapy in the past. It's not suitable for those currently receiving other psychotherapies, those with unstable medication regimens, or if they have psychological conditions that need different treatments.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a new type of cognitive-behavioral therapy tailored to BPD patients without life-threatening behaviors. The treatment considers individual personality traits and aims to be shorter and less intensive than existing therapies.See study design
