I'm currently in a DBT group and find that both therapists who lead the group are quite warm and empathetic. That being said, it is definitely more practical skills based than other therapies, and the focus is on learning new skills rather than getting into underlying issues. I'm getting a lot out of it, in terms of learning to deal with my emotions in healthy not self-destructive ways.
