This study addressed a gap in the treatment and research of parenting interventions for mothers with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) by developing and evaluating a group intervention that integrates components of parenting interventions and three major BPD treatment approaches. A 12-session program was piloted with seven mothers with BPD traits. Questionnaire and interview data were collected at pre-program, post-program, and six-month follow-up. Quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted to investigate group, case study, and program evaluation outcomes. The results indicate that the intervention program facilitated positive changes for the mothers in parenting, the mother-child relationship, and general psychological functioning.
