Some life experiences stay with us long after they’ve passed.
International research suggests that intensive trauma-focused therapy may help reduce symptoms linked to borderline personality disorder (BPD) in people who have experienced trauma.
Informed by this research, ITTC now offers two intensive programs:
1. The Streamline Program is for adults who struggle with ongoing difficulties with emotions, relationships or sense of self, but who don’t have a diagnosis of PTSD or a personality disorder. This can include people who have been diagnosed with adjustment disorder, anxiety or depression.
2. The Personality Disorder Program is for people with a diagnosed personality disorder.
Both programs focus on difficult life experiences that can shape how we see ourselves and relate to others. As well as traumatic events, these can include neglect, bullying, racism, homophobia, emotional abuse, humiliation, lasting regret or chronic rejection.
Treatment uses Prolonged Exposure and EMDR 2.0, two therapies with a strong evidence base in trauma treatment, delivered over a short, concentrated period.
Everyone starts with a clinical assessment to make sure the program is the right fit. A GP or psychiatrist referral is required.
