Yes, I can talk to my T, but he does very much what you expect you T to do; he goes back to the skills we have always worked on because they do work for me if I remember to use them and apply them in all areas of my life. My skills aren't DBT skills, but they are still very behaviorally oriented. I can remember feeling at first that they weren't helpful and being frustrated that my T kept pushing those skills, but over time I realized they were probably the most useful tools I took out of therapy long-term. They took a great deal of time and constant application for them to become part of what I do pretty naturally now.

Your T is a DBT therapist, so it reasons that those skills are what she is going to go back to. Would you consider returning to those DBT skills and giving them more time to internalize? A couple of months doesn't sound like a very long time to really allow those skills to sink in and become more automatic and truly helpful.
