✦ Synopsis
In a previous article in this Journal, the suggestion was made, based on attachment theory and developed within the theoretical framework of a multifactorial conception of individual vulnerability, that personality disorders could be conceptualized as personality-related disorders of interpersonal behaviour. In this article a sketch is made of how such a conceptualization might have an impact on the conduct of therapy. Accordingly, a condensed description is given of a developmental-constructivist cognitive psychotherapy approach to the treatment of patients with this kind of disorder.
