DDP, Suicide Prevention, and Embedded Badness (feat. Dr. Gregory)

Dr. Robert Gregory discusses his Dynamic Deconstructive Psychotherapy (DDP) and Psychiatry High Risk Program, an evidence based alternative to dialectical behaviour therapy for people with borderline personality disorder. 

He also shares his insights on a concept of "embedded badness", the neuroscience behind BPD, and the impacts of academia on promising new treatment options. 

Dr. Robert Gregory is a Professor of Psychiatry at SUNY Upstate Medical University. He is the developer of an evidence-based treatment for borderline personality disorder called Dynamic Deconstructive Psychotherapy and is the founder of the Psychiatry High Risk Program, a recovery-based suicide prevention program for adolescents and young adults that uses Dynamic Deconstructive Psychotherapy as its core treatment.
