WHAT IS DIALECTICAL BEHAVIOR THERAPY?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a skills-based therapeutic modality created to help individuals better understand and regulate their emotions, engage in healthy relationships, and embrace a life worth living.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is comprised of four main tenets: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance.

IS DBT right for me?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is a beneficial therapeutic modality for individuals who struggle with:

  • feeling overwhelmed by strong emotions

  • difficulty being present/grounded

  • nervous system sensitivity

  • unstable or high-conflict relationships

  • difficulty with acceptance and change

  • black and white thinking about self and others

  • boundary setting and self-advocacy

  • impulsive behavior

DBT skills are designed to increase client self-awareness and self-efficacy across multiple areas of life, with an emphasis on emotions and relationships. DBT skills promote mindful living, emotional regulation, relationship stability, flexible thinking, and effective communication.
