Hi Looney Tunes,
I wrote this post a while ago, but some people have found it to be helpful.
I would also suggest that you talk to the therapist with whom you were successful about what type of therapy will be most helpful for you.
If you have BPD, look into DBT therapy. It is based on "Skills Training Manual for Treating Borderline Personality Disorder". She also wrote a text on the subject. Though I see that there are a lot of newer books on the subject. I did DBT 13 years ago and it was helpful to me.
Some people do well with Cognitive Behavioral therapy, others do better with Psychodynamic therapy, or interpersonal therapy, and there are other kinds too.
Do interview potential therapists and trust your instincts. You seem well motivated to make good use of therapy.
Good luck!!
Falls
