Brief Summary

The purpose of the PEGASUS study is to conduct a pilot trial to test the feasibility and acceptability of the PEGASUS intervention, adding a case manager and family-based interventions meetings to the existing psychiatric integrated care-models known as "Treatment Packages" in Denmark. We will conduct a randomized, assessor-blinded parallel-groups superiority clinical trial, testing the PEGASUS intervention for emotionally unstable personality disorder "EUPD", borderline type (borderline personality disorder) compared to "Treatment as Usual" before moving on to testing in a full-scale trial. Participants will be assessed at baseline and 9 month post baseline at study conclusion
