What is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)?

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at helping individuals manage overwhelming emotions, strengthen interpersonal relationships, and improve overall emotional resilience. At Pillars Health Group, our skilled team offers DBT in a structured yet adaptable format, customizing the experience to align with your specific needs and personal goals.

Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, or challenges with emotional regulation, we’re here to guide and support you on your journey toward greater balance, stability, and healing.

Types of DBT

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is particularly beneficial for individuals who have difficulty managing their emotions, engage in impulsive behaviors, or find it challenging to sustain healthy interpersonal relationships.

DBT has been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including borderline personality disorder (BPD), depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), eating disorders, and substance use disorders. With its structured, skills-focused framework, DBT helps clients develop emotional strength, foster self-awareness, and enhance their ability to cope with life’s challenges.
