DBT

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a structured, skills-based approach that helps you better understand and manage your emotions, reactions, and relationships.

DBT focuses on four key areas:

• Mindfulness – staying present and aware

• Emotion regulation – managing intense feelings

• Distress tolerance – coping with difficult moments

• Interpersonal effectiveness – improving communication and boundaries

What is DBT?

We’ll start by identifying where you feel overwhelmed and distressed. From there, we’ll work step-by-step to build and practice DBT skills in a supportive, manageable way.

Between sessions, you’ll apply these tools in real life through simple exercises—helping the skills become more natural and effective over time.

What to Expect in Therapy

Sarah often felt like her emotions came out of nowhere. A small disagreement with a friend could quickly escalate into overwhelming anger or deep sadness. Afterward, she would feel ashamed and confused about why her reactions seemed so intense.
