Dialectical Behavior Therapy
(DBT)

What is DBT?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps individuals manage intense emotions, develop healthier coping skills, and build more balanced relationships. Originally developed for individuals struggling with emotional regulation, DBT combines cognitive strategies with mindfulness techniques to promote greater stability and resilience.

How DBT Can Help?

  • Regulate intense emotions more effectively

  • Build skills for distress tolerance and emotional resilience

  • Improve communication and relationship patterns

  • Reduce impulsive behaviors and self-destructive cycles

  • Support mindful awareness and balanced decision-making

Our Approach to DBT

We tailor DBT principles to fit your unique needs and goals. Our sessions focus on practical, skills-based work, helping you build strategies you can apply to real-life challenges with confidence and clarity.

  • DBT is especially helpful for individuals dealing with emotional intensity, relationship challenges, impulsive behaviors, or difficulty managing distress. It’s effective for a wide range of clients, not just those with formal diagnoses.

  • While CBT focuses on changing patterns of thinking and behavior, DBT also emphasizes acceptance, mindfulness, and emotional regulation — helping clients balance change with self-compassion.

  • Not necessarily. We integrate core DBT skills into treatment based on your needs, without requiring participation in a formal program or group unless it’s clinically recommended.
