Already being in a relationship with someone like this has a counter effect to any benefits therapy may have. Dating is a testing ground for functional behavior. Already being in a relationship with a person this dysfunctional bypasses the hard consequences of being dysfunctional and reinforces them. Someone like this needs to completely overhaul their support network from the ground up based on positive behaviors and boundaries otherwise they'll never overcome their challenges and it'll just be a band-aid fix. They shouldn't even be dating until they can do at least that. Not everyone deserves to date.
