1 Pharmacotherapy has been studied less intensively in recent years, 2, 3 after enormous effort had been spent on application studies that resulted in disappointing results. Keywords: psychotherapy, treatment, dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, mentalization-based therapy, MBT, borderline personality disorderĬurrent evidence-based treatment guidelines consistently recommend psychotherapy as the first-line treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, it is still to be settled who might profit from a combination of or sequential treatment with DBT and MBT. As the effectiveness of specialized treatments for BPD in general has been determined with some certainty, research now tends towards individualized approaches, identifying predictors of optimal treatment response. Reviewing the current research, this paper highlights similarities and differences between the two treatments, and discusses possible ways they could complement each other. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and mentalization-based treatment (MBT) are currently the most intensively researched BPD treatments.
