What is DBT? (Source https://behavioraltech.org/resources/faqs/dialectical-behavior-therapy-dbt/)
"Problematic behaviors evolve as a way to cope with a situation or attempt to solve a problem. While these behaviors might provide temporary relief, they often are not effective in the long-term. DBT assumes that clients are doing the best they can, AND they need to learn new behaviors in all relevant contexts.
The function of DBT Skills is to help enhance a client’s capabilities. There are four skills taught in DBT:
-
Mindfulness: the practice of being fully aware and present in this one moment
-
Distress Tolerance: how to tolerate pain in difficult situations, not change it
-
Interpersonal Effectiveness: how to ask for what you want and say no while maintaining self-respect and relationships with others
-
Emotion Regulation: how to change emotions that you want to change
