My therapist does teach DBT classes and he teaches DBT skills to me. In session. At the time he recommended for me to join a class. However, he was not teaching. . A lot of the skills. He taught me. In session had to do with mindfulness. But he also suggested I join a class. Because the class spends a lot of time teaching the skills and practicing them. During the two-hour session each week. You also have access. To the greater by text or phone during the week. Which helps reinforce the skills to use when you're freaking out.
So if you don't want to you can just learn the skills. With your therapist But the class is extremely helpful because it goes through the whole series. Throughout the book and it's an extra two hours each week that you're concentrating on it. You also fill out diary cards where you track the skills that you're using. . DBT class is not like group therapy dough. . I would highly recommend the class. If you can get into one. . I took the class for 2 years. And it really helped me. .

Another misunderstanding about DBT is that it's mainly for people with borderline. That is not true. I do not have borderline. I have depression PTSD and DID. the skills are hopeful for anyone Who has trouble dealing with emotion Or dealing with interpersonal relationships.

Feel free to p.m. Me if you have any specific questions. I've spent a total of like 3 years. In class and longer than that working. On skills with my therapist. Sorry my Speech to text on my phone is not working very well today.
