Borderline Personality Disorder: Yes There is Treatment That Works!

Borderline Personality Disorder symptoms often emerge during brief outpatient visits, making early identification and structured intervention essential. This session will outline practical strategies for initial assessment, risk evaluation, and the use of DBT-informed skills while awaiting longer-term psychotherapy. Faculty will discuss when to consider adjunctive pharmacotherapy for targeted symptoms and how to coordinate care effectively. Participants will leave with a clear, evidence-based approach to stabilizing early presentations and supporting therapeutic engagement.
