Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Your DBT work begins with a skills group and one on one sessions. We teach four core skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. At Dorsey Recovery, DBT anchors many treatment plans. We practice alongside you, session by session, until the skills feel like yours.
How Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Works in Treatment
Your first DBT session starts with a conversation. We talk through what feels unmanageable and where emotions tend to overwhelm you. From there, we teach skills. You learn to sit with distress, steady strong feelings, and communicate without conflict.
DBT helps when addiction and mental health feed each other. It gives you practical tools for the hard moments.
Our licensed clinicians fold DBT into your wider treatment plan. We track what works. As you grow stronger, we adjust the focus with you.
