Helping Clients achieve Emotional Regulation

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based practice that has been shown to aid the patient in achieving emotional regulation within their life. DBT recognizes that many of our emotional disturbances occur because we are emotionally dysregulated – we experience emotions intensely and they take over. DBT helps us cope with emotions in a healthy, sustainable way.

How Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Works

DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices to help individuals balance acceptance and change. It focuses on four modules: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. These equip individuals to manage emotions, handle distress, improve relationships, and stay present

Through a blend of individual and group sessions, DBT encourages the application of these skills in everyday life, fostering genuine transformation.
