Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, or DBT, is not just useful with people who have Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). “DBT-informed Treatment” is shown to be quite effective with individuals who do not have BPD. This workshop will introduce learners to the validity of DBT interventions for individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, impulse control, and relationships. Clinicians who utilize DBT-informed approaches can help clients with mindfulness, distress, tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal relationships. These four core DBT skills will be explored, and learners will obtain valuable DBT clinical tools to use with a wide variety of clients.
