What Do You Suggest For Dialectical Behavioral Therapy?

I live in south FW aqnd am seeing a therapist. Many of my problems have arisen from the problems associated from my 30 year old son who lives in Weatherford. After many months of talking about many of the problems, she suggested that he get help from a psychologist/therapist. She feels Borderline Personality woiuld be a starting point since he matches so many of the criteria. I am also looking for someone who does Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. He needs help as soon as possible. Can you or someone you know help?

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Borderline personality disorder does need dialectical behavioural therapy. You may contact your general practitioner who can guide you to a psychiatrist who does the DBT. Not all psychiatrists do DBT. Hence your GP would be the best person to have this knowledge that who does the DBT in your area.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
