DBT for Depression
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, is a tried and tested treatment for those suffering from depression and related mental health conditions.
One concept found throughout DBT is behavioral activation, an evidenced based treatment for depression. Keeping it simple - behavioral activation says, "When you want to isolate and do nothing...get up, get out and do something". Behavioral activation is woven into DBT Therapy. The use of DBT for depression is grounded in both this and the acceptance of imperfection as the basis of a vehicle for positive change. Our programs are practical and empowering, allowing you to focus your emotions and energies positively to where they matter, in a way that benefits you
