What is Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)?

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment created to assist your teenager in building skills that will help them regulate difficult emotions, urges to self-harm, and create a life worth living! DBT is designed to help individuals who struggle regulating extreme emotions, suicidal ideation, self-harm behaviors, negative thinking, and difficulty with relationships.
