Debbie Corso

Debbie Corso approaches emotional regulation as a peer educator, advocate, and writer informed by her own experience with borderline personality disorder. The Stronger Than BPD Journal, created with psychotherapist Kathryn C. Holt, uses guided writing activities connected to dialectical behavior therapy. New Harbinger published the journal in 2018 and identifies Kiera Van Gelder as its foreword writer. The exercises focus on recognizing values, building resilience, navigating strong emotions, and listening to an internal sense of judgment. Corso previously wrote Stronger Than BPD and has cofacilitated online psychoeducational courses. Holt brings clinical training to the collaboration, making the journal a deliberately shared work rather than a solo title under Corso's name.
