About this course
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a treatment originally created to treat borderline personality disorder (BPD). In recent years it has been increasingly used to treat many other disorders because of its usefulness in treating clients who struggle to manage emotions. Through lecture and experiential exercises, this webinar series led by Sheri Van Dijk will: 1) explore the four modules of DBT skills (Core Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness), 2) demonstrate how this treatment can be used in your work with clients facing a broad range of conditions such as depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder, in which emotion dysregulation plays a key role, and 3) provide strategies to teach these skills to your clients. Please view the "Agenda" section below to view the other webinars in this series.
Sheri is known for her humor and down-to-earth style, and her ability to de-mystify DBT, making it less intimidating and more user-friendly for clinicians to learn and incorporate into their practice. If you’ve been curious about DBT but have been too daunted to give it a try, this workshop series is for you!
This webinar in the series will provide an overview of the DBT Core Mindfulness skills. Participants will learn about these skills, including the States of Mind, the “What” skills, and the “How” skills. The discussion will be around how to teach these skills to clients struggling with emotion dysregulation.
