    Two Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) experts have joined Clearview Women’s Center for Borderline Personality Disorder. John Kelleher, MD, was named Clearview Women’s Center’s new medical director, and Charlie Swenson, MD, was named Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) trainer and program consultant.

    “I am very pleased to welcome both Dr. Kelleher and Dr. Swenson to our team,” said Michael Roy, MSW, executive director of Clearview Women’s Center. “They provide a high level of BPD expertise that allows Clearview Women’s Center to offer one of the strongest BPD treatment programs available.”

    Dr. Kelleher earned his MD at Brown University School of Medicine in Providence, R.I., and received his training in psychiatry at UCLA’s Neuropsychiatric Institute. Dr. Kelleher was intensively trained in Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT) for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) by Dr. Peter Fonagy and Dr. Anthony Bateman, the originators of MBT.

    In addition to his work at Clearview, Dr. Kelleher works as a clinical fellow in the Borderline Personality Disorder Initiative at UCLA, where he provides medication consultation and management for patients with BPD and co-leads a group therapy in Explicit Mentalizing using principles of MBT.
