Debbie Corso (Author)
Debbie Corso is a mental health blogging pioneer, courageously
chronicling her journey while lighting a torch to provide hope to a
severely emotionally wounded community. She has a BS from New York
Institute of Technology in Interdisciplinary Studies in English,
Communications, and Behavioral Science, as well as a certificate in
Early Childhood Development. She is in recovery from borderline
personality disorder (BPD). Through hard, consistent work with
dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), she no longer meets the
criteria to be considered "Borderline." Her work as an Intake
Coordinator and Case Manager at a non-profit organization, working
closely with children at risk for abuse and neglect, was the
catalyst that propelled her to document and share her powerful
journey through her blog and hopeful, encouraging books on
overcoming the oppressive symptoms of BPD. She currently
co-facilitates online, worldwide DBT groups with therapist Alicia
Paz at www.DBTPath.com. She lives in the San Francisco Bay
Area.
