3.0 CREDIT HOURS
Course Overview:
Have you wondered if DBT skills could be useful for clients who don't have Borderline Personality Disorder? "DBT-informed" treatment is endorsed by Marsha Linehan for individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, and trauma. In this webinar, the DBT model and core tenets will be presented along with the four core skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Each of these skills will be explored in detail by presenting skill concepts, interventions, and relevant case studies. Learners will feel empowered to recognize the value of bringing DBT skills to everyone in a way that encourages mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
