Dialectical Behavior Therapy

A skill based approach to mental health treatment, Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches one to manage distress and regulate intense emotions. DBT is comprised of four main modules:

-Mindfulness

-Distress Tolerance

-Emotion Regulation

-Interpersonal Effectiveness

DBT is often most effective when taught in a skills group setting. By the time a client completes DBT they will walk away with a curriculum of skills they can reference as long as they need.
