What kind of impact can a small organization make on BPD—in its province and globally? In this episode, I find out by interviewing Baylie McKnight, a co-founder of the BPD Society of British Columbia who has lived experience with the disorder, a master’s degree in social work, and a private practice. She tells me about the extraordinary efforts that the BPD Society of BC has made to expand treatment access and support in BC and around the world through online DBT courses, peer support groups, and other programs.
Trigger warning: The diagnostic criteria for BPD mention about suicide.
