Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is one of the most effective therapeutic treatment approaches for issues related to emotional dysregulation1<\/sup>. Focusing on the psychosocial aspects of therapy, DBT emphasizes a collaborative approach, with support for the client and development of skills for dealing with highly charged emotional situations.<\/p>\n

DBT was originally created for treating clients diagnosed with borderline personality disorder<\/a> and struggling with chronic suicidal ideation. But over time, DBT has shown efficacy in the treatment of a range of issues involving dysfunction of emotional regulation and has become the gold standard for treating borderline personality disorder.<\/p>\n
