What is DBT?
DBT is a skills-based therapy where the general goal is to "learn how to change your own behaviours, emotions, and thoughts that are linked to problems in living" (Linehan, M., 2015). DBT sets out to solve these problems in living by providing a set of acceptance and change-based skills aimed at increasing awareness of the present moment (Mindfulness); tolerating distress and accepting reality (Distress Tolerance); understanding and regulating emotions (Emotion Regulation); and improving interpersonal communication (Interpersonal Effectiveness).
Who does DBT help?
DBT was initially developed as a therapy to treat individuals that who presented with high suicidality and self harming behaviours, high therapy drop-out rates, and frequent hospitalizations. It was the first ever psychotherapy to be shown via controlled trials to be effective in treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder. The efficacy of DBT has been demonstrated in the treatment of many other conditions including but not limited to: ADHD, PTSD, Substance Use, Mood Disorders (Depression, Bipolar Disorder), Eating Disorders, and family members of suicide attempters and/or BPD.
What's so fantastic about the DBT skills is that they are life skills that anyone, no matter their struggle (or strength!), can benefit from learning. The skills can be adapted and woven into psychotherapy sessions and client interactions, where DBT is not the main modality.
