Online Working with BPD Training

Self-Directed, Online Working with Clients Diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder Training

Labile moods, impulsive and risky actions and at times, self-harm behaviour can present complexities in the therapeutic encounter. A significant limitation in individuals diagnosed with BPD is their ability for self-regulation and this can be directly linked to their early attachments. This course explores creative ways to better work with these individuals.

The training explores a number of process-oriented, and action-based interventions to assist working with individuals spontaneously and creatively, and also explores working with individuals with BPD through the lens of role theory.

We know from feedback that the training is stimulating, provocative and of professional benefit to all those who have completed it.

I really loved this course, the structure and the complexity. Not having had much exposure to BPD before this course it was very in-depth and some of it was a little complex and I did re-read and watch some of the videos again to gain a better understanding. Really loved the TED talks and the videos. Thanks, heaps for a great course!! Karren Geraghty, Support Worker
