Personality Disorders: Theoretical Framework and Formulation

United Kingdom · CPD courses & CPD points · Health Professionals

This lecture series focuses on working clinically with patients who present with a disturbance of personality. The lectures are based on the assumption that an understanding and application of theory is indispensable when considering the treatment of patients who live with personality disorders. As such, the first lecture begins by conceptualising personality disorders within a psychoanalytic framework, drawing on the ideas of theorists such as Kernberg, Fonagy, and McWilliams as theoretical benchmarks from which to formulate personality and plan treatment. The lecture considers what constitutes a well-ordered vs a disordered self, and looks at ways of formulating and diagnosing personality disorders. The lecture closes with an exploration of the defensive strategies that characterise personality disorders.
