Schema Therapy Shows Promise

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) for the treatment of borderline personality disorder; specifically, facets of it such as emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and cognitive appraisal, has been the focus of the majority of research on personality disorders. In general, however, personality disorders are considered for the most part untreatable and rarely with the expectation that there will be any great improvement in symptoms. But a new therapy, called schema therapy, shows promise in treating personality disorders.

One possible answer might be that patients receiving schema therapy showed statistically significant greater improvement in recovery from personality disorders. Based on the primary outcome measure, roughly 80 percent recovered with schema therapy, 60 percent with Clarification-Oriented Psychotherapy, and 50 percent with TAU.
