B-DIT Feasibility Study

The B-DIT intervention, developed collaboratively by Dutch mental health care institute De Viersprong and OnlinePsyHulp (http://www.onlinepsyhulp.be), integrates FTF therapy and online modules into a cohesive treatment program for clients with personality pathology. Both FTF and online treatment components are anchored in the Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) framework (Lemma et al., 2011).The program spans three phases: an individual phase lasting approximately two months, followed by a five-month group phase, concluding with a four-month booster phase to reinforce positive changes. Face-to-face therapy sessions and online treatment modules are utilized alternately and complementarily throughout all treatment phases. Both verbal psychotherapy and art therapy are offered as treatment modalities in the face-to-face treatment sessions. The program is implemented by a multidisciplinary team.
