Do you experience sudden mood shifts? Are there many ups and downs in your relationships? Do you find yourself engaging in impulsive behaviors (e.g., overeating, substance use, self- injury)?

If so, researchers at the University of Kentucky are inviting you to participate in a study on borderline personality disorder. Eligible participants will be provided over 18 sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy at no cost. In addition to attending therapy sessions, research participation will involve completing a diagnostic interview to confirm eligibility, attending 2-3 follow up interviews, and completing online questionnaires. All study visits may take place in-person or via Telehealth. Participants will be compensated up to $75 for the completion of follow-up interviews.

You may be eligible to participate if you:

* Meet criteria for borderline personality disorder following a study assessment
* Are NOT using certain substances (i.e., opioids, methamphetamine)
* Are 18 years or older
