Gregory W. Lester – Personality Disorders Certification Training Advanced Diagnosis, Treatment & Management

The most difficult population in mental health…

…The manipulative and possibly violent clients with Antisocial Personality Disorder

…Clients with Borderline Personality Disorder who are out of control, have explosive emotions, self-harm tendencies, and cravings for chaos

…The perfectionist clients with Narcissistic Personality Disorder who are quick to blame and combative to overpower you in session

…Clients with Histrionic Personality Disorders whose intense emotions and need for attention test your patience and compassion.

Traditional psychotherapies and medications don’t work for these clients, and they can leave you feeling frustrated, trapped, and even wishing you’d picked a different profession all together!

But I have good news — after 50 years of intensive global research, we now have proven, empirically validated models to effectively treat personality disorders.

Now, in this online certification course, I’ll provide you with a step-by-step plan that’s proven to help you accurately diagnose and successfully treat all 10 personality disorders.

Uncomplicated and easy to understand, my structured training will tell you exactly what to say and what to do when treating the disorders — so you can quickly master the skills you need to improve your clinical outcomes.

You’ll end this course with everything you need to become a Certified Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD).

So join me today to advance your career, gain new understanding, and acquire the most powerful interventions for the management and treatment of your difficult and frustrating cases.

Let me show you step-by-step how to…

Designed for practitioners who know very little about the phenomenon, as well as those with highly developed assessment and intervention skills, expert trainer Dr. Gregory Lester uses passion, humor, and wisdom from his 38 years of treatment experience to make you an expert at working with personality disorders.

Using real-life case examples and easy-to-follow training sessions, you’ll not only learn the neurobiological, genetic, and developmental roots of personality disorders — you’ll discover how to successfully rewire a person’s sense of self so they can function more effectively and build better social connections.
