An experiential, integrative framework for the outpatient treatment of clients with borderline personality disorder

ARTICLEColsoul, Geneviève - 38–3 (2000)

SUMMARY

Ideas of the analytically oriented developmental psychologist Daniël Stern, of the cognitive behaviour therapist Jeffrey Young and of the experiential therapist Margaret Warner are integrated in an experientially theoretical framework. This framework leads to identifying a number of processing problems in the borderline experiencing and in the subsequent therapeutic interventions. Attention is paid to the invisible processing work of the therapist, and to differential interventions concerning the core themes of borderline clients.
