What is DBT?
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based practice for the treatment a range of difficulties including emotion dysregulation, impulsivity, interpersonal difficulties, self-harm, and suicide attempts. DBT has more research support for its effectiveness at reducing these difficulties than any other treatment.
Research shows that, for many people, DBT is effective in reducing anger, suicide attempts, emergency room visits, days in hospital, depression, binge-eating and other difficulties.
As a comprehensive treatment approach, DBT achieves these benefits by focusing on helping people learn and practice skills for how to respond to life’s difficulties more effectively.
