I think the thing that improves outcome more than anything else is commitment. There is a focus on this therapy where the therapist will help the person remain committed and motivated, but there are times when people have emotional dysregulation and impulsive behaviours that they might feel very much that they don’t want to relinquish that. So I think any work that that person can do in maintaining their motivation is undoubtedly going to improve the outcome.
