Are you a good fit for DBT therapy?

If intense emotions feel overwhelming, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) can help. In-person or online, DBT therapy features a structured, skills-based approach designed to help you regulate emotions, navigate distress, and build healthier relationships. With a combination of mindfulness and practical coping strategies, DBT empowers you to handle life’s ups and downs in a better way, rather than crumbling before them.

DBT techniques are particularly effective if you struggle with intense, seemingly uncontrollable emotions, impulsive behaviors, or feelings of being "too much" or "not enough." If you want to gain better control over your emotions, improve communication, and build a more stable, fulfilling life, DBT therapy skills will help you get there.

  1. You experience intense emotions that feel difficult to manage.

  2. You struggle with impulsivity, distress tolerance, or maintaining relationships.

  3. You want to learn practical skills for emotional regulation and mindfulness.

What to expect from DBT therapy

DBT therapy focuses on four key skill areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Sessions include a combination of learning new coping strategies, practicing mindfulness, and applying DBT therapy techniques to real-life challenges.

DBT improves your emotional balance, gives you the tools to break unhelpful patterns, and respond to situations with greater awareness and control. Over time, these skills lead to a life that feels more stable, fulfilling, and in line with your own values.
