Livewell Southwest offers a service to help people with complex emotional needs or dysregulation who are also likely to receive a diagnosis of personality disorder to manage their condition and relationships.

The Livewell Southwest teams are inclusive in supporting people with complex emotional needs/personality disorders. The Personality Disorder Complex Emotional Needs Service was developed and expanded in 2022 within Livewell Southwest and offers support and treatment for complex emotional needs/personality disorders, using NICE-recommended treatment this includes Peer Support, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (for borderline personality disorders) and some other specialist interventions. We aim to be a learning service always seeking up to date evidence for practice and the lived experience in our service development.
