Abstract
Efficacious psychological treatments for personality disorders. There are many proposed psychological treatments for personality disorders, but there are few studies about its clinical efficacy. After our review, it seems that nowadays there is no "efficacious psychological therapy", neither for personality disorders in general, nor for the different personality disorders in particular. Nevertheless, for borderline personality disorder, the cognitive-behavioral dialectic therapy and the classical behavior therapy have enough empirical endorsement to be considered "probably efficacious psychological treatments". Even so, it seems that clinicians treat globally personality disorders with predefined concrete therapies, ignoring that Millon, on the contr ary, proposed that personality itself must be the guide to the therapy through the combination of the diverse existing therapies according to the patient's problematical personality characteristics.
