In this episode of Brain Trust: Conversations in Psychopharmacology, host Joseph F. Goldberg, MD, sits down with Michael Gitlin, MD, to explore pharmacologic approaches to personality disorders. Dr. Gitlin makes the case for targeting specific symptom complexes — such as impulsive aggression and affective instability — rather than treating the disorder as a whole, and discusses the role of therapeutic alliance in improving outcomes.

Brain Trust: Conversations in Psychopharmacology is a Psychiatric Times podcast series in which Dr. Goldberg and leading experts discuss what’s topical, controversial, and clinically essential in psychopharmacology.
