​DBT utilizes mindful awareness to help people increase their emotional and cognitive regulation by learning about the triggers that lead to reactive states, and helping to assess which coping skills to apply in the sequence of events, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help avoid undesired reactions.

Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches: 

• Mindfulness: the practice of being fully aware and present in the moment.

• Distress Tolerance: the ability to tolerate discomfort.

• Interpersonal Effectiveness: positive communication skills, conflict resolution skills and perspective taking.

• Emotion Regulation: the ability to handle a variety of emotions in an effective manner.

Both The Adult & Teen Programs Include:

• One hour of individual therapy with a DBT-trained therapist and
• Two hours of DBT Skills Training Group weekly.
• Consistent attendance is a major component of the DBT program and attendance contracts will be implemented as part of treatment.
•  Most clients will participate in the DBT program for between six to twelve months. Length of treatment is variable based on medical necessity and goal attainment.

Adolescent Program Note:

•  The adolescent program requires parent/guardian participation in select Group Skills Training Sessions. These family skills training sessions focus on parent-child communication strategies that balance acceptance and change, also known as “Walking the Middle Path”. This parent involvement is essential to DBT treatment for adolescents.

Those who complete DBT often report:

• Improvement in their self-esteem, the quality of their relationships, and an overall increased ability to maintain emotional stability and experience joy
• Improvement in functioning and quality of life due to successful repeated practice and application of new coping skills 
• Reduction in depression, anxiety, anger, suicidal and self harm urges

DBT balances Acceptance and Change by:

• Teaching how to acknowledge your current emotions, thoughts, and experiences without judgment, while also…
• Teaching how to develop healthier coping strategies, improve your relationships, and experience a greater sense of balance and well being
• DBT is an empirically supported treatment, meaning it has been studied extensively and has been repeatedly proven to be effective.
