As far as I can tell, no one to date has put together a directory of the best available evidence-based treatment for personality disorders. Sure, there are books, most of which are filled with out-date psychodynamic bullshit.
So, here is the start (many missing) of the first and only list, after about 10 minutes of google-ing:
Psychological treatments for narccissm
Pharmacological treatments for narciissm
both withdrawn, Cochrane y u do this?
Sociopathy (incl. psychopathy treatment
Shyness treatment
Systematic reviews don't exist for: dependent personality disorder (clingyness) or self-defeating personality disorder (masochism, not necessarily sexual). No attempt made to find summaries for sadistic personality disorder (they're not gonna be looking for a treatment, probably), or borderline personality disorder (cause clinicians stigmatise them and frequently, clearly demonstrate they don't give a fuck about evidence based treatment for BPD, unfortunately)
On what basis do you claim that the textbooks on the subject aren't evidence based but bullshit?
Have a read of them. I might post some links (perhaps biased by my particular google search results) of the stuff that comes up when I look for books on the topic. But for now I gotta study for a goddam exam!
