Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy, first developed in the 1980s by Marsha M. Linehan, to treat patients suffering from borderline personality disorder. Since then, DBT’s use has broadened and now it is regularly employed as part of a treatment plan for people struggling with behaviors or emotions they can't control. This can include eating disorders, substance abuse, self-harm, and more. DBT is a skills-based approach that focuses on helping people increase their emotional and cognitive control by learning the triggers that lead to unwanted behaviors. Once triggers are identified, DBT teaches coping skills that include mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. A therapist specializing in DBT will help you to enhance your own capabilities, improve your motivation, provide support in-the-moment, and better manage your own life with problem-solving strategies. Think this approach might work for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s DBT specialists today.

Is anxiety, self-doubt, or painful memories keeping you awake at night? Are you having trouble focusing on important tasks during the day because you are constantly worrying about things? Anxious thoughts can be like bullies pushing you around, preventing you from being present and enjoying life. Often the clients I work with feel overwhelmed by stress, worries, and the daily pressures of life and want to feel less consumed by these things, and feel more present and engaged in their lives.
