Executive Summary of the Course:

Put at its simplest, DBT hinges on teaching important life and psychological skills to those who need them, and then supporting them in applying those skills in real life. Both elements can sometimes be challenging and DBT has developed to overcome those challenges.

DBT Essentials covers the delivery of effective DBT at its most relevant, including: impulsivity, lack of emotional control, interpersonal problems, high risk behaviors, including suicidal behavior and non-suicidal self-injury.

Who should attend this DBT course?

People who attend our DBT training normally fall into one of two categories:
