Therapist Talks: How to use DBT Distress Tolerance Skills

Описание: Hello again! I'm Michele Laux and in this short video I share a couple of the DBT Distress Tolerance Skills and how to use them when in emotional chaos. I recommend practicing these when calmer, so that they are easier to turn to when in greater distress.

It's important to know that DBT skills are not addressing issues in your life, in your past, they are to be learned and practiced so that they become available for you to use when emotions are ruling the day, and to help you move into the problem solving part of your brain. There is a great deal of research on the effectiveness of DBT for those whose emotions seem to overwhelm often, and it you're unsure of DBT's usefulness for you, I'd invite you to look into that.

Below are resources for learning more about DBT. I'm also happy to try to answer questions you may have about these skills.

Thanks for being here. Take Care!
