Getting support that fits
People given the same diagnosis may need quite different support. An assessment can consider your circumstances, strengths, other conditions and goals. If you have a care or crisis plan, ask how any additional counselling would fit with it.
What sessions might explore
Depending on your situation, sessions may explore emotional regulation, relationships, safety and coping skills. A diagnosis needs clinical assessment. If you have a care team, discuss how additional sessions would fit with your treatment and crisis plan.
Choosing support
Ask what the practitioner offers for your particular needs and who to contact during a crisis. For diagnostic questions or high-risk symptoms seek assessment through a GP or mental health service.

You can also explore borderline personality disorder and emotional regulation. For further information, see NHS information on personality disorders.

Frequently asked questions
What does support for personality disorders involve?
It depends on your goals. Sessions may explore emotional regulation, relationships, safety and coping skills; a practitioner should explain their approach and agree priorities with you.
When should I seek help with personality disorders?
If longstanding difficulties with emotions or relationships are affecting your life, speak to a GP or mental-health professional. You do not need to diagnose yourself.
Can online counselling help with personality disorders?
Private counselling may fit alongside an agreed care plan. Check relevant training and how risk and contact with the treating team will be managed.
Can a therapist profile tell me whether I have a personality disorder?
No. A formal diagnosis requires an appropriate clinical assessment. Psychological treatment depends on the person and diagnosis. Ask about the clinician's specific training, supervision and ability to coordinate with your care team.
How do I choose a therapist for personality disorders?
Ask what the practitioner offers for your particular needs and who to contact during a crisis.
What if counselling is not enough?
For diagnostic questions or high-risk symptoms seek assessment through a GP or mental health service. You can ask a therapist about referrals and support that may be more appropriate.
What should I do if I need urgent help?
If anyone is in immediate danger, call 999 or go to A&E. For urgent mental-health help in England, call NHS 111 and select the mental-health option. Elsewhere in the UK, contact your local NHS urgent mental-health service or GP out-of-hours service. Veyro cannot provide emergency care.
