What is DBT?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT for short, is a type of therapy that is derived from cognitive-behavioral therapy. Its main goals are to teach people how to live in the moment, cope healthily with stress, regulate emotions, and improve relationships with others.

“Dialectical” means combining opposite ideas. DBT focuses on helping people accept the reality of their lives and their behaviors, as well as helping them learn to change their lives, including their unhelpful behaviors.

Dialectical behavior therapy was developed in the 1970s by Marsha Linehan, an American psychologist.

The Four essential DBT skills learned in sessions are Mindfulness, Emotional Regulation, Distress Tolerance and Interpersonal Effectiveness.
