Psychological Disorder & Substance Abuse Program - DBT Therapy
Dialectical
Behavior Therapy (DBT) is the combination of Cognitive Behavioral
Therapy and Dialectical Thinking. As such, it emphasizes the here
and now, encourages open and explicit collaboration between you and
your therapist, views truth as an evolving product of differing views,
promotes the wholeness and interconnectedness of the world, and focuses
on the concept of mindfulness, which empowers you to take charge of
yourself.
Promising studies show DBT to be effective
with those with Borderline Personality Disorder, women prone to self-harm,
and women afflicted with Bipolar Disorder and substance abuse.
