"Laura Paxton's book Borderline and Beyond is enormously helpful - no matter what kind of therapy is being used. It will be helpful for those not in treatment as well. I highly encourage everyone with the BPD to use this book as a guide."
Leland Heller, MD,
Author of Life At the Border: Understanding and Recovering from Borderline Personality Disorder

"To develop a program to assist in the recovery process of borderline patients is work you deserve commendation for. To be able to instill hope in patients and staff alike is a precious gift you have given to those, who have wished to hear your inspirational and authentic message."
Raymond Fideleo, MD
Sharp Mesa Vista Hospital
