Experiences with dynamic deconstructive psychotherapy (feat. Carly)

Carly (@jesuscoffeeandprozac) is a married mom of two who works as a substance use prevention counselor with middle school students. Though she has struggled with her mental health for almost 20 years, she was formally diagnosed with BPD in January 2024. She is now in a specialized treatment program that utilizes dynamic reconstructive psychotherapy (DDP) to treat people at high risk for suicide. In this episode, Carly talks about her understanding of DDP, how it differs from DBT, and how it’s working so far.To view the resources we talked about regarding DDP and learn more about it click here.To listen to the Kelly South episode of BBB that Carly referenced click here. Just a quick note on triggers: in this episode we briefly talk about a specific method for suicide. We did so because it was relevant to the conversation and therapeutic technique. We tried to be brief and keep it non-specific. The timestamp is approximate 32-33 minutes if you would like to skip that section. This episode featured Laurie Edmundson who previously was a co-host of this project.
