What is Dialectal Behavioral Therapy?
Dialectal Behavioral Therapy (DBT) focuses on helping individuals learn how to manage their emotions (decrease mood swings), improve interpersonal relationships, decrease impulsivity, use mindfulness to gain control over self, and recognize how to see the "grey" and get out of the "all or nothing" thinking methods.
