Managing people with borderline personality disorder (BPD) is an arduous task due to the complexity of the condition. This paper describes the role of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) in a patient diagnosed with BPD who has undergone a modified DBT skill group training. Despite receiving multiple interventions in the past, this patient had her bouts of struggles living with this illness which required a new approach to facilitate her recovery. A trial of a short-term, 12 session-ed treatment of mindfulness-based CBT was commenced. In this case report we describe the challenges and modifications which surpass during this session and literature review on the role of CBT on BPD.
