The Effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Personality Disorders - 05/08/11

Résumé |
This article provides a comprehensive review of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) treatments for personality disorders (PDs), including a description of the available treatments and empirical support, drawing on research published between 1980 and 2009. Research generally supports the conclusion that CBT is an effective treatment modality for reducing symptoms and enhancing functional outcomes among patients with PDs, thereby making it a useful framework for clinicians working with patients with PD symptomatology. There is a clear need, however, to develop and evaluate CBT in order to provide specific and more unambiguous treatment recommendations with particular relevance for understudied PDs.
