First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial investigates whether a psychological program called DBT-LIVE, which focuses on identity disturbance, can help people with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Around 112 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either DBT-LIVE or their usual treatment. Researchers will measure changes in identity confusion, emotional regulation, self-compassion, and suicidal behavior over six months.
