Dialectical Behavioral DBT Therapy Skills in Daily Life

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices to help individuals regulate emotions, manage stress, and improve interpersonal relationships. Developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan in the late 1980s, DBT was initially designed to treat borderline personality disorder (BPD) but has since been adapted to treat various mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and substance abuse.
