Life can be messy and feel overwhelming, and sometimes we can feel ill-equipped to handle it effectively. We might find ourselves having a difficult time controlling our emotions and reacting in ways that we later regret. Perhaps we blow up at others, pushing those closest to us away; or we might turn on ourselves with self-criticism, self-harming behaviors and/or thoughts of death. We can find ourselves trapped in troubled relationships, or stuck in worry and despair.Simply put, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) teaches people how to live well. It doesn't matter the diagnosis, or even if there is no diagnosis. If one has a model of strategies and skills to deal effectively with the inevitable stress that is part and parcel to the human experience, one is better equipped to manage their life more effectively. One can learn to create "a life worth living".
