DBT Skill Categories

 
In the next few posts, I'll provide examples of my personal understanding and applications of each of the four categories of DBT skills which include:

  • Distress Tolerance: feeling intense emotions without acting on them impulsively or using self-injury to diminish the distress.

  • Emotional Regulation: recognizing and adjusting emotions.

  • Mindfulness: being aware of myself and others and attentive to the present moment

  • Interpersonal Effectiveness: navigating conflict and interacting assertively
