      What is Dialectical Behavior Therapy?

      Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a type of psychotherapy that combines the best of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with concepts from mindfulness meditation. Developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan, DBT was initially created to treat individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, it has since been adapted to address various other mental health conditions, including mood disorders, substance abuse, eating disorders, and more.

      DBT helps individuals regulate emotions, manage distress, and improve interpersonal relationships. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is based off of the principles of dialectical philosophy, which works towards finding a balance between acceptance and change. DBT teaches clients new skills to cope with difficult emotions and situations while simultaneously encouraging acceptance of oneself and one's circumstances.

      What does Dialectical Behavior Therapy Treat?

      Dialectical Behavior Therapy is effective in treating a wide range of mental health issues, including:

      What are the Benefits of Dialectical Behavior Therapy?

      Our patients in Westmont and Chicago are experiencing life-changing results with DBT and are able to better cope with life’s most challenging battles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy has many benefits and can have a profound impact on individuals' lives:

      1. Improved Emotional Regulation: DBT equips individuals with skills to effectively identify, understand, and regulate their emotions. This leads to reduced emotional volatility and greater emotional stability over time.
      2. Enhanced Interpersonal Relationships: By learning effective communication skills and strategies for managing conflict, individuals can improve their relationships with others. DBT emphasizes assertiveness, empathy, and validation for healthier interactions.
      3. Increased Mindfulness: DBT incorporates mindfulness practices that help individuals cultivate present-moment awareness and non-judgmental acceptance. This can lead to a greater sense of inner peace, improved focus, and reduced reactivity to stressors.
      4. Better Coping Mechanisms: DBT teaches practical coping strategies for managing distressing situations without resorting to harmful behaviors. Individuals learn to tolerate distress, cope with crises, and solve problems more effectively.
      5. Reduced Risk of Relapse: For individuals struggling with conditions like BPD, substance abuse, or eating disorders, DBT can help prevent relapses by providing ongoing support and skills training. It equips individuals with the tools they need to navigate challenges and maintain progress in their recovery journey.
