Practical support for families, carers, professionals, and organisations
Personality Disorders CIC exists for one simple reason. Too many families, carers, and professionals are trying to deal with extremely difficult situations without the support or knowledge they need.
Why Our Services Matter
Personality disorders can bring intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and crisis situations that leave people feeling lost, exhausted, and alone. Many carers are doing their best to help someone they love, but no one has ever shown them how.
Our services aim to change that.
We are a non profit organisation, and our main goal is to reduce the suffering experienced by families, carers, and professionals who face these challenges every day. Because of this, our services are offered at heavily reduced prices compared with most training or consultancy providers.
If you are interested in any of the services below, please contact us and we will happily explain the options and provide current prices.
Services for Carers and Families
Caring for someone with a personality disorder can be emotionally exhausting. Many carers feel like they are constantly walking on eggshells. Others are dealing with repeated crises, emotional outbursts, or self destructive behaviours that are frightening and confusing.
Most families receive very little guidance on how to manage these situations.
Our services are designed to give carers knowledge, support, and practical tools so they can respond in a calmer and more confident way, while also protecting their own wellbeing.
Support Groups
Our online support groups bring carers together in a small and safe environment where people understand what you are going through.
Many carers feel isolated because friends and relatives do not fully understand the situation. In these groups you can talk openly, share experiences, and learn from others who are facing similar challenges.
Sometimes simply knowing you are not alone can make a huge difference.
Webinars
We run online webinars on topics that carers often struggle with. These sessions focus on practical situations that happen in real life.
- Understanding emotional outbursts
- Managing conflict at home
- Responding to self harm behaviours
- Setting healthy boundaries
- Protecting your own wellbeing as a carer
The goal is to give you simple ideas and tools that you can start using straight away.
One to One Support
Sometimes carers need a private space to talk through what is happening at home.
Our one to one sessions give you the chance to explain your situation, ask questions, and explore different ways of responding to difficult behaviours.
Many carers leave these sessions feeling more grounded, less alone, and better prepared to face the next challenge.
Online Courses
We also offer online courses that you can follow at your own pace through our learning platform.
These courses explain personality disorders in a clear and simple way and focus on practical skills that help carers manage everyday situations more effectively.
- Understanding personality disorder behaviours
- Communication skills
- Managing emotional escalation
- Setting boundaries
- Looking after yourself as a carer
As a non profit organisation, we try to keep these courses affordable for families. Please contact us for current prices.
“Our aim is simple. To help families, carers, and professionals feel less alone, better prepared, and more supported.”
Services for Organisations and Professionals
Many professionals work with people who experience extreme emotional distress, crisis situations, or complex relationship patterns. Without proper training, these situations can quickly become stressful and emotionally draining for staff.
We provide training and support that helps staff understand what may be happening and how to respond in a calm and constructive way.
Our goal is to help organisations protect both staff wellbeing and the people they support.
Staff Training Workshops
We offer workshops for organisations either online or face to face. These sessions help staff understand the behaviours and emotional patterns often seen in personality disorders, and how to respond without escalating the situation.
- Understanding emotional dysregulation
- Responding calmly to crisis situations
- Managing difficult conversations
- Setting professional boundaries
- Protecting staff wellbeing
The sessions are practical, realistic, and designed for people working on the front line.
Online Training for Staff
Organisations can also give their teams access to our online training platform. These short courses allow staff to build knowledge and confidence at their own pace.
They are especially useful for larger teams who need flexible training options.
Topics include recognising behavioural patterns, improving communication, and managing emotionally challenging interactions.
Support for Staff
Working with people in severe distress can take a real emotional toll.
Staff sometimes carry the weight of difficult conversations, crisis situations, and intense emotional interactions long after their shift has finished.
We offer discounted one to one support sessions for staff who feel emotionally affected by their work. These sessions provide a confidential space where professionals can talk things through and find ways to protect their own wellbeing.
Reduced Non Profit Pricing
Because we are a non profit organisation, these services are offered at significantly reduced prices compared with most private training providers.
If your organisation would like to arrange training or staff support, please contact us to discuss your needs and request a quote.
Courses and Learning Platform
Personality Disorders CIC offers structured psychoeducation courses for families, carers, and professionals who want to better understand personality disorders and learn practical ways to respond to challenging situations.
Our courses explain the psychological mechanisms behind emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, and crisis behaviour. The goal of psychoeducation is to help families understand what is happening, communicate more effectively, and create a more stable environment that supports recovery.
Course materials are delivered through our learning platform, where participants can access lessons, resources, and structured learning modules.
Access to courses is not open registration. If you would like to participate, please contact us directly so we can guide you to the appropriate course.
Events
Throughout the year we organise educational and community events designed to support families, carers, and professionals who want to better understand personality disorders and how to respond to challenging situations.
Our events may include webinars, talks, and discussions where participants can learn from clinical knowledge, lived experience, and practical strategies that help families and professionals navigate complex emotional and relational difficulties.
Details of upcoming events, including dates, times, and locations, are published on our events page together with an archive of previous activities.
