More than anything, borderline is a war with the validity of your negative feelings. You can imagine how disregulated one can become when negative feelings are denied or seen as obstacles to life. Eventually, negative emotions arise in response to having negative emotions which are further denied. This leads down the rabbit hole to depression and emptiness.

I remember a psychiatrist / author responding to criticism of his use of a few zingers in his column in Psychology Today. He acknowledged that he was taking a small, calculated risk, but believed he needed to leave an impression with the patient to "make it stick" when he was encouraging them that their feelings of the moment were not immutable, inevitable, monolithic, etc. If you can laugh at your situation even a little, that reaction can be a step out of the overwhelm. Disproportionality of response, and a pervasive sense of daily catastrophe *are* the adversaries. Showing your faceless adversaries (overwhelming emotions) a little healthy disrespect means you think you can beat them. If your own overreactions can look funny for a second, they lose some of their ability to incite fear, dread, inevitability, etc.

Good video. Therapy is not a cut and dry process. In truth therapy is difficult to conduct as it is to receive. Some many think Dr. Fruzzetti was not taking things seriously or joking too much, but this is his approach. When working with Borderline patients who have such serious emotions and situations, sometimes the seriousness needs to be deflated. As most therapists still today do not work with patients who are Borderline, I think he did a good job in the video.

As someone who has BPD and has been very much helped by particular counselors, and now functions really quite well, I can say that going to this guy would have been an absolute disaster. He is for sure belittling her, precisely what a BPD patient does not need more of. While a counselor needs to question *with the patient* (after all most BPD patients are very intelligent, and besides which self-determination should be respected) the conclusions and coping mechanisms a BPD patient might come to/come to use, they should not question their experience or the validity of it. I don't think he's being empathetic at all, besides which, I don't think he's being particularly smart as he doesn't seem to understand some of the pretty straight-forward points she's making.

But YOUR perception is not HER perception. Everyone with BPD is not a single person, there isn't one shared consciousness. Just because you share her diagnosis does not mean you think or feel the same. Where you perceived belittling and callousness, she clearly experienced empathy and support. In fact, she said her level of connection and sense of validation was the highest it's ever been. It clearly worked for her. Which is to say, he isn't a bad therapist, he's just a bad therapist for YOU. Neither are right or wrong, just a bad fit.

From a patients prospective, I would most likely give this Dr. a second chance but if he was the same on the second visit I would be rid of him. I personally find that once some one starts throwing out rapid fire yes, uh huh, o.k. etc... that their focus is not on me at all and they are feigning interest to appease me, not at all what I want in my Dr. this is what my Dr. does and I truly feel she listens and cares, eye contact and the occasional acknowledgement when appropriate. I know this was a dramatization and Dr. Fruzzetti may not do this all the time, I only mention it because it seems that most of the comments come from people in the field, perhaps gathering such suggestions from your clients would help them feel more comfortable, and as you know, an uncomfortable patient is much less willing to talk about their inner most thoughts. I am a vet and have had very little luck with care and doctors at the VA, so I consider myself quite fortunate to have Dr. Doyle and would recommend her to any vet in the Phoenix area.

Many folks in DBT have brains that race so fast, that this level of interruption and speed is the only way to keep up with them. If we let them sit for a bit, often twenty other things come up and we can't actually solve any problems or get any movement anywhere. DBT is for patients that have chaotic lives and there are always 1000 problems to solve. This is a 10-year-old video when calling her "kiddo", wouldn't have been so wrong. He is interrupting shame, which is essential to therapy. Letting people wallow in shame is not helpful. This treatment is different and the folks in DBT are often folks that standard therapy has failed them. We have very specific targets and hierarchies of targets, that establish how focused we are. Therapy destroying behavior is the number one priority over all else, even the urge to die by suicide. He first addresses this, then moves to target number 2 for DBT, which is life-threatening behavior.

Then goes on to say he didn't mean it like that and "that's what I tell my wife all the time"...like, wuh?? Think if I were the patient, I would have left the room. This is serious business--there's nothing humorous about a therapist (accidentally) making light of a patient's pain. Perhaps he just slipped up with the script but when he continued to joke about it, I stopped the video... (please see my next comment--after watching the video in full, I gained a more solid understanding of his approach)

Ok, so I decided to watch the rest of the video and now I have a better understanding of his technique. Yes, he has a very calm humor which may push the patient enough so that they will talk about their strong response and then it's addressed in a very logical, practical manner. He stays in control of the situation while encouraging the patient to stay in the moment and talk through the issues. He reminds me of a incredibly loved and respected oncologist I used to work with...almost identical in manner and speech. His patients were intensely ill, many had lost all hope. Because he was upfront with the issues, yet calm and reassuring, his patients (many who were close to dying or were terrified of dying) placed their trust in him and felt reassured under his care. I see the same approach here with Dr Fruzzetti.
