Improve Your Mental Health with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based approach designed to help individuals manage emotions, build healthier relationships, and develop effective coping skills. Originally created for individuals experiencing intense emotions, DBT is now widely used to support anyone struggling with emotional regulation, stress, and interpersonal challenges.

DBT balances acceptance and change—helping you acknowledge where you are while providing tools to move forward. It’s a structured, skills-based approach that empowers you to create a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.

What Types of Problems Can DBT Help With?

DBT is particularly effective for:

  • Emotional dysregulation

  • Anxiety and stress

  • Depression and low mood

  • Self-criticism and low self-worth

  • Relationship difficulties

  • Difficulty managing anger

  • Impulsivity and self-destructive behaviors

  • Chronic feelings of emptiness

  • Navigating major life changes

  • Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and related challenges

DBT provides practical skills to help you manage emotions, improve relationships, and feel more in control of your life.
