What are the Benefits of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy?
A distinguishing feature of DBT lies in its emphasis on embracing a patient's experiences. The primary objective of DBT is to validate patients' emotions and the challenges they face to promote the advantages of change. Your therapist will guide you in acquiring new skills designed to enhance your ability to regulate emotions. The specific benefits patients glean from DBT will depend on their willingness to engage with the practices and make the necessary behavioral adjustments over time. Some techniques employed include mindfulness practices that help patients focus on their awareness of the present instead of being preoccupied with worries. The skills learned in DBT can help patients build and repair relationships as they help improve their social skills learning how to better communicate their feelings and set boundaries. Like other forms of CBT, DBT can also help patients manage their emotions when confronted with external stressors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is available at Gold Counseling.
