Core Principles of DBT
Dialectical Philosophy:
Dialectical Behavior Therapy uses dialectics and it is all about accepting opposing ideas and being in the middle of them. It makes people embrace themselves and who they are at the same time it fosters change in the right way.
Mindfulness:
Dialectical Behavior Therapy aims to help people improve their awareness of the things around them and focus on the ‘here and now’ aspect without criticizing it. It also helps to lessen inner emotional distress and increases the client’s ability to regulate their emotional states.
Emotional Regulation:
Dialectical Behavior Therapy identifies and constructs skills that assist the affected people in controlling extreme feelings, avoiding temper episodes, and having proper ways of handling unpleasant events.
Interpersonal Effectiveness:
While DBT is generally a problem-solving approach, the patients are also taught how to communicate better, how to set personal limits, and how to manage anger.
Distress Tolerance:
This skill helps people learn how to accept that they feel bad and they do not need to harm themselves or take drugs.
Acceptance and Change:
DBT allows clients to tolerate the feelings that are difficult and accept situations while engaging in a process of altering maladaptive modes of thinking and behaving.
