In Loving Memory of Anne Reeve

Anne Reeve’s work has had a profound impact on the lives of carers of people with BPD in Australia, and their families.

In 2015 Anne worked her magic and influence to get the US based National Education Alliance for Borderline Personality Disorder (NEA-BPD) to gift its brand, its wealth of research and treatment knowledge, and its globally renowned Family Connections program to the Australian community.

Much of the philosophy of NEA-BPD Australia (as Headway was then known) was informed by Anne’s personal experience and feedback by Australian BPD stakeholders, shaped by the knowledge and expertise of the US authors of the Family Connections program for carers of people who suffer from BPD, the late Dr Perry Hoffman, and Professor Alan Fruzzetti.
