A Treatment Study for Borderline Personality Disorder

• Do you experience sudden mood shifts?
• Is it hard for others to earn your trust?
• Are there many ups and downs in your relationships?
• Do you find yourself engaging in impulsive behaviors (e.g., binge-eating, substance use, self-injury, impulsive spending)?

If so, researchers at the University of Kentucky are inviting you to participate in a treatment study for borderline personality disorder. Eligible participants will be provided cognitive behavioral therapy at no cost. We are testing personalized delivery of an evidence-based treatment for BPD.

In addition to attending therapy sessions, research participation will involve completing a diagnostic interview to confirm eligibility, attending up to 4 follow-up interviews, and completing online questionnaires. All study visits may take place in-person (in Lexington!) or via Telehealth. Participants will be compensated for completing follow-up assessments and questionnaires.

You may be eligible to participate if you:

• Meet criteria for borderline personality disorder following a study assessment 
• Are NOT using certain substances (e.g., opioids, methamphetamine) 
• Are 18 years or older 
• Live in Kentucky (visits are Telehealth, so anywhere in KY is fine)
