Abstract

Depression among older adults is a particularly distressing problem, not only because of high rates but also because of higher risks for suicide among this population. In addition, personality disordered depressed elderly have been shown to be less responsive to depression-specific therapies. This article reviews the rationale and treatment modifications under development for treatment of elderly depressed patients with comorbid personality disorders using Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
