Contrasting Clients in Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: "Marie" and "Dean," Two Cases with Different Alliance Trajectories & Outcomes
Overview
This paper contrasts the treatment courses of two DBT clients, Marie and Dean, who both had poor initial alliances but different outcomes. It examines factors such as client characteristics, the therapeutic alliance, and the research context to explain their divergent trajectories. The resource is intended for clinicians or researchers interested in understanding variations in DBT efficacy and alliance development.
