In just 4 intensive days, you’ll gain a deep understanding of DBT’s core principles, history, and practical applications for treating borderline personality disorder, anxiety, trauma, and OCD. This training equips you with essential DBT skills—mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness—so you can help clients manage emotional and behavioral challenges effectively.
Through expert-led instruction, hands-on exercises, and real-world case applications, you’ll develop crisis intervention strategies, including managing suicidal ideation and self-directed violence. Learn to implement DBT in individual and group settings, use diary cards for tracking progress, and integrate behavior chain analysis for deeper intervention. With a focus on acceptance versus change, radical acceptance, and the biosocial theory, this training offers a structured, evidence-based approach to treatment.
By the end, you’ll be ready to apply DBT with confidence in any clinical setting. Whether you’re new to DBT or refining your skills, this certification will help you create lasting change for your clients.
