Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
DBT is the Gold Standard Treatment for individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder but in recent years the treatment has proved to be highly effective for Adults and Adolescents with other conditions too.
There are a few places available in the UK that offer this treatment and unfortunately, in many areas, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy treatment is either not available or difficult to access through the NHS.
Here at Home Counties Therapy, we offer the package advocated by the author and lead in the field of DBT – Marsha Linehan. This involves a combination of Skills Training Group, One to One Therapy and Phone Support. We have been inspired as a team to offer the full DBT package to clients with complex mental health issues and adolescent with emotional and behavioural traits in line with BPD symptoms as this increases successful outcomes for our clients.
