What is DBT?
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) was developed by Marsha Linehan, PhD,
ABPP.
DBT, including DBT skills training, is based on a dialectical and biosocial
theory of psychological disorder that emphasizes the role of difficulties in
regulating emotions, both under and over control, and behavior.
Emotion dysregulation has been linked to a variety of mental health problems
stemming from patterns of instability in emotion regulation, impulse control,
interpersonal relationships and self-image.
DBT skills are aimed directly at these dysfunctional patterns.
The overall goal of DBT skills training is to help individuals change
behavioral, emotional, thinking, and interpersonal patterns associated with
problems in living.
Linehan, 2015, p3.

Key Dialectic of DBT skills
DBT skills
reflect a key dialectic:
“The need for me to accept myself
as I am,
and the need
for me to change”
