Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment originally developed to treat borderline personality disorder (BPD) but widely effective for drug addiction, depression, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness, helping individuals regulate emotions, reduce self-destructive behaviors, and build healthier coping strategies for long-term recovery.
A DBT assessment is a comprehensive evaluation designed to identify emotional dysregulation, addiction triggers, and mental health conditions like BPD or PTSD. We provide thorough assessments to help individuals begin their journey toward recovery, focusing on:
Focusing on evidence-based strategies, our DBT programs provide a structured path to recovery, helping individuals manage cravings, stabilize emotions, and build resilience to prevent relapse.
Our team conducts a detailed evaluation of your mental health history, addiction patterns, and emotional challenges to create a personalized DBT treatment plan tailored to your recovery needs.
Through DBT modules like mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation, we teach strategies to manage cravings, reduce impulsivity, and stabilize mood swings associated with addiction and mental health issues.
Round-the-clock guidance from DBT-trained therapists ensures a stable recovery, addressing crises like suicidal ideation or relapse triggers to promote safety and emotional stability.
DBT withdrawal from destructive behaviors can lead to emotional exhaustion—our team provides mindfulness practices, yoga, and nutritional support to enhance mental clarity and support long-term recovery.
One of the most common questions people ask is, “How long does it take to see improvement with DBT?” Progress typically begins within weeks of starting DBT, with significant emotional stabilization and reduced addiction cravings occurring over 6–12 months, depending on individual needs and ongoing skill practice (post-treatment maintenance).
While DBT recovery can be challenging, especially with co-occurring addiction and mental health issues, it is highly effective in reducing self-harm, substance use, and emotional distress.
