Understanding How Dialectical Behavior Therapy Works

DBT is a structured, evidence-based approach that blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness and acceptance strategies. A typical DBT program will include both one-on-one talk therapy and skills training. Individual sessions focus on personal challenges, helping clients apply new skills to everyday life. Over time, these tools aid individuals in reducing impulsive reactions, managing stress, and building healthier relationships.

What Is DBT Therapy Used to Treat?

Originally developed for people who experience intense emotions, DBT is now used to treat a wide range of mental health concerns. Common reasons to try DBT include:

• Chronic stress
• Mood instability and emotional dysregulation
• Anxiety and panic attacks
• Depression and self-harm
• PTSD and trauma-related symptoms
