Six Steps in the Treatment of Borderline Personality Organization

In this inspired volume Dr. Vamik Volkan uses precise, strong, and, at times, poetic language to present a treatment approach for work with borderline patients. His entire treatment method is set forth in six steps that reflect patients' actual sequential experience in the therapeutic process. Dr. Volkan presents ample clinical examples, including his work with nine psychosis-prone borderline patients, as well as a detailed account of a six-and-a-half-year analysis of Pattie, which he describes as "a long journey into an intrapsychic world".Volkan, Vamik D. is the author of 'Six Steps in the Treatment of Borderline Personality Organization', published 1988 under ISBN 9780876687536 and ISBN 0876687532.
