Embracing the complexity of Personality Disorder: the scientific and clinical contribution of Transference Focused Psychotherapy

The objective of the seminar is to describe how Transference Focused Psychotherapy (TFP) is well placed to address Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), based on the evidence base for treatment, developments in affective neuroscience and the ICD-11 guidelines for the diagnosis of PD.

After presenting the key tenets of TFP, a clinical vignette will be used to illustrate the above points. We will also present emerging results from a mixed method study of the teaching of Applied TFP for general psychiatry settings in 5 countries, and discuss the systemic implications of this for the improvement of management of BPD within a world psychiatry context.
