“…Ruptures in the therapeutic allegiance may be turned to advantage by leading to insights, improving communication and even strengthening the therapeutic bond. 7 Therapists' specifically human capacities may also contribute to the success of the therapeutic effort. One such capacity is empathy.…”

“…Narrative therapy in BPD 7 aims at making patients re‐author their narratives, produce a more coherent, meaningful and less negative understanding of their experiences, and learn to distinguish themselves from their condition (externalization). Patients are helped to find connections between their different mental states and follow those in their sequence.…”

“…AI assistance could be integrated into mainstream therapeutic efforts such as dialectical-behavioural therapy 5 and mentalization therapy, 6 as well as less established ones such as narrative therapy. 7 The suggestion is that AI using natural language processing could help patients re-author their self-narratives into more coherent and meaningful sequences, in which they view themselves more like agents and less subject to external control, as well as assign more consistent roles to others. The therapy assistant could promote mentalization, detect the inconsistencies between causal attributions and lack of self-attributions of agency in situations in which the subject is the apparent agent, and prompt patients forward by targeted questions towards insights concerning causal connections and self-agency.…”

This paper explores the possibility of AI-based addendum therapy for borderline personality disorder, its potential advantages and limitations. Identity disturbance in this condition is strongly connected to self-narratives, which manifest excessive incoherence, causal gaps, dysfunctional beliefs, and diminished self-attributions of agency. Different types of therapy aim at boosting self-knowledge through self-narratives in BPD. The suggestion of this paper is that human-to-human therapy could be complemented by AI assistance holding out the promise of making patients' self-narratives more coherent through improving the accuracy of their self-assessments, reflection on their emotions, and understanding their relationships with others. Theoretical and pragmatic arguments are presented in favour of this idea, and certain technical solutions are suggested to implement it.

“…Collaborative health care should be advocated for to improve overall patient and client care (Kaur & Tadros, 2019). The overarching goal is to advance health care in order to deliver the best treatment possible (Kaur & Tadros, 2019; Tadros, Cappetto, & Kaur, 2019). Further, it should be the norm for health-care professionals to collaborate with other health-care providers from different divisions and disciplines (Kaur & Tadros, 2019).…”

Medical family therapy (MedFT) is a systemic, biopsychosocial meta-framework by which clinicians provide therapeutic services to patients and their families who are experiencing physical health problems. MedFTs conceptualize families holistically and further work with families to develop a sense of agency and communion to improve their lived experience. Home-based family therapy (HBFT) is a method of treatment in which clinicians and other mental health professionals meet clients and their families where they are by providing therapeutic services at their clients’ places of residence. However, there is a gap in existing literature regarding the application of MedFT within the HBFT setting. The purpose of this article is to explore how MedFT can be utilized in home-based therapy settings. Moreover, a case application is provided to illustrate the applicability and effectiveness of the utilization of MedFT in HBFT settings.

This paper proposes a culturally safe integrative systemic model for supporting First Nations people with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Firstly, this paper examines BPD from a systemic perspective by observing its impact on family and therapeutic systems. An overview of the empirical evidence for integrative systemic therapy demonstrates its suitability for working with BPD, particularly when combining systemic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioural paradigms. A case example illustrating a client's journey using the proposed model is presented to explain how elements of Bowen family systems therapy, narrative therapy, and dialectical behaviour therapy are blended with cultural components to form a culturally safe integrative systemic approach. An initial evaluation demonstrated positive preliminary therapeutic outcomes, with the main strengths being the cultural additions and the mitigation of power struggles in the treatment and family systems that are reported in the literature as detrimental to BPD interventions. Limitations concerning the practicality of replication in mainstream settings are noted, particularly where full cultural safety may be more difficult to achieve. The paper suggests that integrative systemic approaches combined with cultural elements may be effective when supporting First Nations families living with BPD. Finally, this is currently the only integrative culturally safe therapeutic approach proposed for this cohort, making it unique given the overall paucity of empirical evidence in the field.
