This book is written in the first person; the author communicates directly with a patient who either has a personality or character disorder or is in an important relationship with a person with this condition. With meticulously protected confidentiality, Fatal Flaws offers a true sense of the clinical experience by informing, orienting, and supporting both novice and seasoned mental health professionals as they face the ongoing challenges of treating patients with personality or character disorders. It is also particularly valuable for patients in psychotherapeutic treatment who are in destructive relationships with people with untreated personality disorders.
