Initiate Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
A popular form of cognitive-behavioral treatment for BPD is dialectical behavioral therapy. The primary message to be communicated to the patient is that concerning every subject, opposite statements are possible. The dialectical psychiatrist helps the patient achieve synthesis of oppositions, rather than focusing on verifying either side of an oppositional argument.
