Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment for individuals who significantly struggle experiencing, tolerating, and regulating their emotions.
DBT has been found to be effective for people experiencing problems such as: depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and disordered eating.
DBT is grounded in mindfulness and focuses on balancing the need to change while validating and accepting where individuals are on their journey.At McMan Calgary & Area, we offer DBT Skills Training which is one mode of support within a comprehensive DBT treatment program.
This 12-week skills training teaches specific skills to increase an individual’s capabilities to cope with emotions and experience life differently than they currently are.
The skills are taught in a group setting to allow for individuals to learn from each other and provide a forum for practicing skills in the moment. The group format resembles a classroom more than a therapy session.
Group facilitators provide teachings and new information, and members participate in discussion and hands-on practice of the skills.
