By Margaret Stewart


Making the decision to seek treatment for borderline personality disorder is a very cardinal step. As such, it is important to identify and understand the methods that may be used in the treatment process and finding one, with the help of your therapist that you are comfortable with.Following are brief notes on bpd therapy ontario.

Finding the best treatment option for persons with borderline personality is crucial to its management as it allows the return of relative normalcy in their general livelihood. Several treatment options are available but usually vary and are largely dependent on the treatment facility or therapist. Therefore the first and most important step for therapy is finding the best fit for the individual.

One of the most important things to know about this condition is that the diagnosis must be done in the correct and most appropriate manner. Holistically, in the whole of the medical field, effective and best treatment usually depends firstly on making the most accurate and correct diagnosis. If incorrect or erroneous diagnosis is done, then the results are less likely to be accurate. Unfortunately, this particular condition of borderline personality has been found to be one of the most highly misdiagnosed ones, amongst the commonest psychiatric disorders.

It is important to also consider their admission criteria, the type of schedules they have and in the case of admission how long are you expected to stay in the facility. Consider also if they have functional support groups because one of the end goals of therapy is to improve interpersonal communication and relationships.Acscertain the discharge process, if you can discharge yourself from the facility and if so who else should be notified or consulted in the discharge process .

First and foremost, it is vital to ensure that the process is undertaken by a therapist who is duly trained and also experienced, particularly in treating this condition. While this quality sounds almost obvious, it is very important to mention since many patients have constantly suffered under the hands of inadequately trained personnel.

While talk therapies have had very positive outcomes, it is important to note that one particular method may not in itself work but it may become necessary to use more than one method at different stages of treatment. As a deeper understanding of the client develops, a mutual agreement between client and therapist to change treatment plans may be reached.

Medication can be used as a form of therapy but cannot be used independently. It is only used in collaboration with other methods to control other symptoms that come with BPD such as anxiety and depression. Drugs commonly used are mood stabilisers which are very effective.

Conclusively, borderline personality disorder should be handled by highly qualified therapists with unquestionable character traits and high end interpersonal skills. Additionally, therapists should create a healthy relationship with the client.
