What is DBT?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps individuals manage intense emotions, develop healthier coping skills, and build more balanced relationships. Originally developed for individuals struggling with emotional regulation, DBT combines cognitive strategies with mindfulness techniques to promote greater stability and resilience.
