Modality

Virtual: Live Interactive Session with Activities & Discussion

NOTE: This is a live, interactive, training presented through Zoom as an online Webinar. . Zoom recommends having a broadband wired/wireless connection, speakers, and a microphone to effectively participate via this platform. (requirements listed on zoom’s website here: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362023-Zoom-system-requirements-Windows-macOS-Linux).

Program Summary:

This program provides an overview of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) for providers who are interested in learning how this evidence-based modality can be used effectively to help clients manage a wide range of symptoms (including high risk behaviors). Participants will review the theoretical foundations of DBT as well as how DBT therapy is structured. Recommendations will be shared for supporting clients seeking DBT skills class and/or individual therapy. This includes reviewing the DBT Diary Card, the structure of DBT individual sessions, and the Behavior Chain exercise. This training acts as a primer that would help clinicians understand whether more extensive training in DBT would benefit their clinical work. While very helpful, this three hour program is not sufficient to equip therapists with the knowledge and skills necessary to be considered fully competent within DBT.

Learning Objectives:

  • Participants will be able to recognize the fundamental theory, principles, and structure of DBT training.

  • Participants will be able to recall the DBT treatment hierarchy, recognize the DBT diary card, and understand how to apply both in their individual clinical work.

  • Participants will associate DBT skills with client target behaviors and understand where to get further (in depth) training on DBT.
