For decades, countless psychoanalysts made an effort for the exploration of this special type of psychic disorder-borderline personality disorder (BPD). More importantly, one special form of treatment, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was found to be relatively effective in medicating this mental disease. By screening of sources retrieved from multiple databases, this review utilized and evaluated the findings of 12 studies for its clinical impact. Echoing the previous studies, DBT has shown an effectiveness in treating BPD. From mothers to female teenagers, different age groups among populations were put into considerations. Moreover, evidence is also indicating a better performance for DBT with the combination of Cognitive Therapy. Limitations include problems with sampling for each study, leading to a less generalized finding. Certain amount of individual bias could also be presented throughout this review. To conclude, BPD has shown its potential in treating BPD's symptomatology while more further research is needed in regard to limitations.
