Dialectical Behavior Therapy
What is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and who can it help?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that was originally developed to treat individuals with borderline personality disorder.
Today, it’s used for a variety of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. DBT focuses on teaching individuals how to live in the moment, cope healthily with stress, regulate emotions, and improve relationships with others.
DBT is grounded in the concept of dialectics, the idea that two opposing truths can coexist. This therapy emphasizes the balance between acceptance and change. DBT is divided into four modules: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Mindfulness;
refers to the practice of being fully aware and present in the moment.
