DBT....yes, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
Major point is mindfulness...seeing the big picture & putting your logic together in making wise decisions.
Emotional Regulation....teaches skills for regulating your emotions.
Distress Tolerance....teaches skills that allow you to better handle distressful situations in life
Interpersonal Effectiveness.....teaches skills in how to relate to others....saying no is ok & asking for needs.
Overall summary of what's included in DBT...& 2 years of weekly group 2 hour meetings to work on & understand better the skills needed to accomplish those issues in life.
