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

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a cognitive behavioral therapy treatment that uses a multidimensional approach to help people learn skills to manage their emotions and improve their relationships. DBT typically includes individual therapy sessions and group skills training.

What tools do you teach in dialectical behavior therapy?

Common DBT tools include:

  • Group therapy, where patients are taught behavioral skills in a group setting.
  • Individual therapy with a trained professional, where a patient's learned behavioral skills are adapted to their personal life challenges.
  • Core mindfulness, which helps you focus on the present or “live in the moment.” This helps you pay attention to what is happening inside you (thoughts, feelings, sensations, and impulses) as well as use your senses to tune in to what's happening around you (what you see, hear, smell, and touch) in nonjudgmental ways.

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

Clients are making progress when they are able to manage their symptoms and regulate their emotions.

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

Clients can consistently practice their DBT techniques.

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

Clients can prepare to be open, honest, and committed.

I am a recently retired licensed clinical social worker with 45 plus years of experience in that field of practice. I attended undergraduate school with Michael Martin and have continued to maintain contact with him since that time. Michael has consistently impressed me as a caring, knowledgeable and empathic individual who has brought these traits into his practice as a psychotherapist. He speaks very positively about his work and his satisfaction in assisting the individuals he provides services for on their behalf. In conclusion, I strongly recommend considering Michael as ones' psychotherapist.
