Borderline Bill walks into your office with a downturned view of therapy, thinking that he won’t have much luck when it comes to talking with yet another therapist. However, always the optimist, you ask Bill if he has heard of a treatment that may be especially helpful for those with Borderline Personality Disorder, known as:
  1. Dialectical Behavior Therapy
  2. Feminist Therapy
  3. Client-Centered Therapy
  4. Orthodox therapy
Explanation
Answer - A - DBT is known to be a really reliable treatment for borderline personality disorder. DBT uses two concepts, acceptance and change, examining how the two are balanced in an individual’s life. While it may be considered client-centered, the therapy falls mainly in the category of CBT, because it is still teaching principles of how to maintain such balance.
