What is DBT?

DBT is a therapeutic modality that can help you learn to cope with difficult emotions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy helps people obtain a life worth living, learn essential life skills, and develop a greater sense of self-control. This group aims to help you understand and apply the four DBT skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotional regulation.
