What is your go-to approach for dialectical behavior therapy?

DBT is an all-encompassing therapy where the clinician should be available often to help the client manage emotional storms.

What tools do you teach in dialectical behavior therapy?

Tools to use for DBT include journaling and self-talk, among others.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in dialectical behavior therapy?

One would know a client is making good progress when they have fewer episodes of emotional dysregulation and are able to manage them fairly easily on their own.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement dialectical behavior therapy?

Clients should practice mindfulness and learn healthy ways to self-soothe.

What should someone do to prepare for starting dialectical behavior therapy?

To prepare for DBT, clients should be prepared to talk openly about negative thoughts and be prepared to trust the process.
