What is your go-to approach for dialectical behavior therapy?

DBT is a wonderful therapy model! My go-to DBT skill is mindfulness. Mindfulness is a priceless skill almost anyone can benefit from.

What tools do you teach in dialectical behavior therapy?

In DBT, I enjoy teaching and empowering folks to use interpersonal effectiveness skills such as DEARMAN (describe, explain, assert, reinforce, mindfulness, appear confident, and negotiate).

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in dialectical behavior therapy?

A client can know they are making progress if they are more effective communicators, have greater emotional tolerance, and can be more mindful of their thinking!

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement dialectical behavior therapy?

Clients can and should engage in a meaningful life outside of DBT! They should work on finding and integrating things into their lives that increase their quality of life.

What should someone do to prepare for starting dialectical behavior therapy?

To prepare for the first DBT session, clients should familiarize themselves with the four domains of DBT and have an idea about what they’d like to work on!

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) FAQs

What is dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)?

At Thriveworks, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) primarily concentrates on assisting individuals in emotion regulation, enhancing interpersonal relationships, and acquiring effective coping strategies for managing stress and emotional difficulties.

How does DBT work?

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) targets your personal challenges. You may work with your DBT therapist to maintain diary cards to monitor progress, emphasizing validation and support in the therapeutic relationship. DBT follows a stage-based approach, prioritizing crisis reduction initially and life satisfaction.

What is DBT best used for?

DBT was initially developed to address the needs of individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, its versatile approach has enabled its application to a wide range of mental health conditions, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, and anger issues.

What are the 4 pillars of DBT?

The 4 pillars of DBT are mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance.

Is DBT better than EMDR?

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) have distinct purposes and aren’t inherently superior or inferior to one another. DBT is most effective for managing emotional regulation, personality disorders, and interpersonal challenges, while EMDR is specifically tailored for individuals with trauma-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Is DBT conducted in person or online?

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with therapists at Thriveworks in Attleboro, MA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How many months is DBT?

The duration of a standard DBT program is typically around 24 weeks, which is roughly six months. The actual number of sessions will vary depending on the issues you wish to address.

I always feel better after our session
Elijah Aug 2026Thriveworks.com verified review
★★★★★
Cameron goes above and beyond to make sure I have what I need to feel better, and tailors my medication and meeting frequency to what I have going on in my life and how I'm feeling. I've never been more confident in a health care provider's ability to find medications and solutions that work for my mental health needs. She's so kind and understanding and truly cares about her patients. I can't recommend Cameron or Thriveworks enough for someone who is ready to start taking medication or find a better medication for their mental health.

Cameron is the most knowledgeable practitioner I have ever had. She is so caring and thinks about the whole picture of health of a person instead of just their mental health. I enjoy working with her very much. She also has a great sense of humor and can relates with me about family life.
