I speak in this episode with psychologist, solution focused therapist and a teacher of mine: Geert Lefevre on the subject: difficult people?  We talk about Linehans theory, the basic attitude, the role of hope, how to deal with crisis and many other subjects as the tool "allertness" and emotion regulation. Geert gives a refreshing view on the subject and teaches me again the extreme big importance of connection for these cliënts.
