Personality Disorders Training for Clinicians

Personality disorders require skilled, nuanced therapeutic approaches. PESI’s training programs in personality disorders help clinicians deepen their understanding of diagnoses like borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder, and dissociative identity disorder (formerly multiple personality disorder). These courses offer accredited Continuing Education (CE) credits and emphasize evidence-based interventions tailored to complex personality dynamics.

Learn from expert instructors who blend psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, relational, and trauma-informed perspectives. You’ll gain practical strategies for assessment, treatment planning, therapeutic boundaries, and relational repair. Whether you're refining your approach to borderline personality disorder or expanding your competence in narcissistic and co-occurring personality pathology, these trainings equip you to work more skillfully and confidently.
