Antisocial Personality Disorder

Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD) often comes with a long history of pain, mistrust, and emotional disconnection. It may manifest as impulsive actions, strained relationships, or difficulty experiencing empathy. But those outward behaviors don’t tell the whole story. Many individuals with ASPD have learned to protect themselves in ways that made sense at the time.

At Florida Atlantic Coast Treatment Solutions (FACTS), we don’t just focus on the symptoms. We take the time to understand each person’s experience. In turn, we work alongside them to create space for healing. This is done at a pace that honors their story and supports their long-term goals.

What is Antisocial Personality Disorder?

Antisocial Personality Disorder is a mental health condition characterized by a consistent pattern of violating the rights of others, deceitfulness, impulsivity, and a lack of remorse. It typically begins in adolescence or early adulthood and persists into adulthood.

An estimated 3% of the general population has ASPD. Those who do may struggle to follow rules, maintain employment, or build trusting relationships. While the behaviors may seem cold or calculated, they often stem from early life experiences, trauma, or environments lacking emotional support.

Common signs of Antisocial Personality Disorder include:

  • Chronic lying or manipulation
  • Disregard for laws or social norms
  • Aggressive or impulsive behavior
  • Lack of empathy or remorse
  • Difficulty maintaining long-term relationships
  • Irresponsibility, especially with work or finances
  • Frequent legal trouble or criminal behavior

Guided Support for Individuals Living with ASPD

At our mental health treatment center in Florida, we offer compassionate and structured care for individuals living with ASPD. Our residential program combines evidence-based therapies, trauma-informed practices, and a supportive environment that enables clients to initiate meaningful changes.

This level of care provides a supportive and structured environment where clients can fully immerse themselves in the healing process. Away from everyday triggers and in a more controlled environment, clients receive intensive therapy and 24/7 care. This setting provides the space to focus on emotional regulation and relationship-building while laying the foundation for long-term recovery.

Our Approach to Treating Antisocial Personality Disorder

Treatment for ASPD is highly individualized. It involves building trust and helping clients develop insight into their behaviors and how those behaviors affect their lives and the lives of others. At FACTS, we use a range of effective therapeutic modalities to support long-term healing and behavioral change:

One-on-one sessions provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for clients to explore the roots of their behavior and develop healthier ways of thinking and responding.

Through shared experiences, clients learn communication and social skills while gaining valuable feedback in a supportive environment.

CBT helps individuals recognize distorted patterns of thought and behavior and learn how to replace them with more constructive approaches.

DBT focuses on emotional regulation, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness which are key skills for those diagnosed with ASPD.

Many individuals with ASPD have experienced trauma. We provide care that honors and addresses those experiences with sensitivity and expertise.

Yoga, art, music, and other mindfulness-based practices offer alternative outlets for emotional expression, regulation, and self-reflection.

Relationships often suffer when someone is living with ASPD. Our family-focused work helps rebuild trust, improve communication, and support lasting change.
