How DBT Skills Works

DBT combines evidence-based techniques with practical skill-building. In sessions, a therapist teaches you structured skills in four key areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. You’ll practice exercises, reflect on real-life situations, and learn strategies to respond to challenges in healthier, more balanced ways. The focus is on actionable skills you can use every day to improve your well-being.

What to Expect in a Session

Sessions are collaborative, supportive, and goal-oriented. You will be learning and practicing strategies while receiving guidance and feedback from a licensed therapist. Over time, DBT helps you gain control over overwhelming emotions, strengthen relationships, and build a more fulfilling life.
