Learn DBT by Doing DBT – Experiential Virtual Skills Trainings

Learn DBT by Doing DBT: An Immersive Training Experience for Clinicians & Students

At DBT HOUSE, we believe the best way to learn Dialectical Behaviour Therapy Skills is to experience it yourself. Our Virtual DBT Skills Trainings are designed for mental health professionals and students who want effective, evidence-based tools to support their clients—while also strengthening their own skills and self-awareness.

Led by experienced, passionate educators, our experiential model allows you to learn DBT skills just like a client would—through your own self-discovery.
