Dialectical behavior therapy is an approach that helps people learn to cope with difficult emotions. DBT helps people build five major skills: Regulate Our Emotions. When we are able to regulate our emotions, we are able to better regulate our bodies and their physiological state, as well. Tolerate Distressing Events/Thoughts/Feelings. It allows us to tolerate and cope with extreme emotions when we feel out of control. Effectively Communicate and Create Positive Relationships. Develop Mindfulness. Mindfulness teaches us to live in the present moment. The wise mind is a healthy balance of the two: emotional and reasonable. By looking at the world through a comprehensive and balanced lens, we are able to stray away from “all or nothing” thinking patterns and, instead, compromise and/or make healthier choices. Through the use of DBT and learning the skills that come along with it, you can truly see changes to how your mind works, how your body feels, and, ultimately, how to lead a more balanced life.
