Free CE Webinar for Clinicians on Borderline Personality Disorder – 7/14

Tuesday, July 14, 2026 | 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM (PST)
Please join us for a free CE webinar with Lois W. Choi-Kain, MEd, MD and Jeffrey DeVido, MD on Borderline Personality Disorder and effective interventions for care.
Treating patients who suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder can present unique challenges to clinicians. One critical barrier clinicians may face is diagnostic uncertainty due to co-occurring conditions. Likewise, providers may frequently navigate crisis management while maintaining therapeutic boundaries. This webinar, hosted by leading BPD experts, will offer clinicians practical insight into these complexities. It will focus on recognizing BPD early, responding effectively and confidently, and supporting better outcomes through evidence-based care.
This webinar will help clinicians:
  • Diagnose borderline personality disorder early to provide effective interventions for care.
  • Assess clinical challenges and manage co-occurring disorders in people with borderline personality disorder.
  • Describe the co-occurrence of other psychiatric and functional problems with borderline personality disorder.
