Overview[edit]

DBT is considered part of the "third wave" of cognitive-behavioral therapy, and DBT adapts CBT to assist patients to deal with stress.[1]

This approach was developed by Marsha M. Linehan, a psychology researcher at the University of Washington; She defines dialectical as “a synthesis or integration of opposites”.[2] DBT was designed to help people increase their emotional and cognitive regulation by learning about the triggers that lead to reactive states and helping to assess which coping skills to apply in the sequence of events, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help avoid undesired reactions.[citation needed]

DBT grew out of a series of failed attempts to apply the standard cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) protocols of the late 1970’s to chronically suicidal clients.[2] Research on its effectiveness in treating other conditions has been fruitful;[3] DBT has been used by practitioners to treat people with depression, drug and alcohol problems,[4] post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD),[5] traumatic brain injuries (TBI), binge-eating disorder,[6] and mood disorders.[7][8] Research indicates DBT might help patients with symptoms and behaviors associated with spectrum mood disorders, including self-injury.[9] Recent work also suggests its effectiveness with sexual-abuse survivors[10] and chemical dependency.[11]

DBT strives to have the patient view the therapist as an ally rather than an adversary in the treatment of psychological issues. Accordingly, the therapist aims to accept and validate the client's feelings at any given time, while, nonetheless, informing the client that some feelings and behaviors are maladaptive, and showing them better alternatives.[8] DBT focuses on the client acquiring new skills and changing their behaviors,[12] with the ultimate goal of achieving a "life worth living", as defined by the patient.[5]

In DBT's biosocial theory of BPD, clients have a biological predisposition for emotional dysregulation, and their social environment validates maladaptive behavior.[13]

DBT skills training alone is being used to address treatment goals in some clinical settings,[14] and the broader goal of emotion regulation that is seen in DBT has allowed it to be used in new settings, for example, supporting parenting.[15]
