Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in Substance Use Disorder Treatment


Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a proven approach for treating substance use disorders (SUD). This training is designed to provide a detailed overview of the ways in which DBT enhances SUD treatment by providing tools for mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. DBT goes beyond traditional approaches, promoting self-acceptance, tackling co-occurring mental health disorders, and empowering individuals to prevent relapse. DBT fosters a holistic, evidence-based approach to addressing emotional and psychological factors contributing to substance misuse. DBT also places a special emphasis on long-term recovery, building engagement, trust, and collaboration while providing insights into managing triggers and cravings for sustained sobriety.
