MIND-BPD at MGH

About the MIND-BPD Project at MGH

The MIND-BPD study is a clinical research project at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) dedicated to advancing understanding and treatment for individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Our team is focused on exploring how mindfulness-based real-time fMRI neurofeedback (mbNF) can augment Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and support emotional regulation, mental health, and brain function in people with BPD.

Participants in the MIND-BPD Project will take part in DBT skills group psychotherapy, complete clinical questionnaires/interviews, engage in structured mindfulness sessions, and participate in the mbNF which gives individuals the opportunity to receive real-time feedback on their brain activity while undergoing non-invasive brain imaging. This research aims to deepen our knowledge of how mindfulness and DBT-informed approaches can improve well-being for those living with BPD.

We are still recruiting for this study!

We are currently recruiting adults diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder who are interested in mindfulness-based research. Participation involves completing questionnaires, attending DBT skills group psychotherapy, and undergoing brain imaging at MGH.
