How Does Dialectical Behavior Therapy Work?
DBT is structured in stages, beginning with identifying problematic behaviours and building coping strategies. A typical session includes a mix of individual therapy and group skills training. Your therapist guides you through mindfulness practices, distress tolerance, and emotional regulation techniques, tailoring each session to your unique needs.
DBT typically involves four key components:
-
Individual Therapy: One-on-one sessions with a trained DBT therapist
-
Group Skills Training: Learn and practice DBT skills with others
-
Phone Coaching: Get support between sessions when needed
-
Therapist Consultation Team: Ensures your therapist provides the best care possible
Our experienced therapists guide you through these components, tailoring the approach to your unique needs.
