14th Annual Yale NEA-BPD Conference: "Emotional Dysregulation in Families - Treatment and Support"
This year’s conference will address a variety of research-supported interventions and support options for families that struggle with problems of emotional dysregulation, including new mothers, parents of children struggling with dysregulated children and adolescents, and family members touched by borderline personality disorder (BPD). Our presenters include treatment developers, researchers, master clinicians, and individuals who will share from their lived experience of BPD. Our hope is that this conference will serve to help our attendees better understand, support, and help those suffering from emotional dysregulation, and decrease the stigma that plagues the individuals and family members of those who struggle it.
Our conference is aimed at mental health professionals, training clinicians and researchers, as well as those with lived BPD experience and their family members. Presentations are designed to make cutting edge research and practice accessible to both professionals and lay audience members, and ample time is provided for questions from the audience throughout the conference day.
