DBT Group

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) is a type of psychotherapy rooted in CBT, with a specific focus on people who experience intense emotions or emotional reactions.

"Dialectical" means combining opposite ideas, which DBT does by teaching people to accept reality and challenging them simultaneously to make changes.

DBT is especially effective for people experiencing difficulty managing and regulating emotions. Their difficulties may have resulted in troubled relationships or a pattern of harmful behaviours.

Just as in CBT, DBT teaches a person to challenge and change unhelpful ways of thinking and behaving and focus on building skills and relationships that help a person reach the highest possible quality of life.

Components of DBT

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is being self-aware and present in the moment. When you are mindful, you can see what is happening around you and learn to stop worrying about situations that are not happening. It helps you respond rather than react to the here and now.

Distress Tolerance

Distress tolerance describes the process of learning to understand your emotions and reactions to them in difficult or stressful situations. Distress tolerance teaches you to manage your emotions without using harmful behaviours.

Emotion Regulation

Emotion regulation is the process of learning to be more aware of your emotions. By understanding your emotions and how they generate, you can learn to control your reactions and your level of distress.

Interpersonal Effectiveness

Interpersonal effectiveness involves learning how to ask for what you want or need. It consists of setting boundaries whilst respecting yourself and others.
