Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a highly effective research-backed counseling program designed by researcher and practitioner Marsha Linehan. Therapy For Real Life employs expert training in DBT to offer self-care strategies adapted for everyday life. DBT teaches practical self-care and relationship skills to help you build a balanced and contented life. DBT is built on the assumption that we are all human, that we all make mistakes, and that having a non-judgmental attitude will help you build a life that is truly yours.

Your DBT therapist will help you identify potentially harmful habits, and then give you personalized coaching in more strategic self-care alternatives. DBT lets you pick and choose the self-care strategies that work for your life. DBT has shown to have powerful effects in alleviating stress, depression, anxiety, trauma triggers, relationship insecurities, and in solidifying a sense of identity.
