LEARN THE BPD TREATMENT FRAMEWORK FROM A CLINICIAN TRAINING THERAPISTS ON PERSONALITY DISORDERS
Gregory W. Lester, Ph.D.
Dr. Gregory Lester is a clinical psychologist licensed in Colorado and Texas with a clinical focus on personality disorder diagnosis, treatment, and management. His practice has centered on the exact BPD presentations this webinar addresses: the session that becomes crisis without warning, the splitting dynamic that collapses the therapeutic alliance, and the rupture that resists repair.
What Dr. Lester brings to the August 20th BPD & Emotional Chaos Webinar is the clinical framework that comes directly from that work: how to read the BPD escalation curve before it takes the session, how to name the splitting dynamic without being destabilized by it, and how to apply the specific in-session repair move when the alliance ruptures. The framework treats BPD behavior as clinically legible, not chaotic, and gives clinicians the exact moves that hold the case through the moments that most often collapse it.
Here Is What Changes After This Webinar:
WITH THIS WEBINAR:
You read the BPD escalation curve before it takes the session
You name the splitting dynamic without being destabilized by it
You apply the in-session repair move when the alliance ruptures
You keep the BPD case moving where standard protocols run out
WITHOUT THIS WEBINAR:
The BPD escalation reads as resistance & stalls the treatment plan
Splitting collapses the alliance before the repair move lands
Standard BPD protocols run out mid-session every time
The rupture stays open until the client stops showing up

Frequently Asked Questions
I work with BPD clients but I have never been formally trained in BPD treatment. Is this Webinar appropriate for me?
Yes. This Webinar is built for licensed clinicians who already carry BPD clients on their caseload and want the clinical framework for crisis, splitting, and rupture repair that standard training never provided.
I have taken BPD trainings before that felt too theoretical to apply in session. How is this different?
Dr. Gregory Lester teaches the BPD escalation curve, the splitting dynamic, and the in-session rupture repair move as clinical strategies designed to apply in your next BPD session, not stored for later.
I am trained in CBT, DBT, or psychodynamic modalities. Will this conflict with my existing training?
No. The BPD clinical framework adds an assessment and in-session response layer to the modality you already practice without asking you to abandon it.
My BPD clients keep destabilizing despite solid clinical work. Is this only for severe or hospitalized presentations?
No. The Webinar focuses on the BPD mechanisms underneath the presentation, so it applies across outpatient, community mental health, and private practice caseloads.
