Working in mental health often means supporting people with complex emotional needs. These clients may face difficulties with relationships, impulsive behaviours, or self-harm. Without effective strategies, progress can feel limited. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy training offers professionals a structured, evidence-based way to guide clients towards meaningful change.
This November, DBT-UK invites you to join our intensive three-day training programme. It will equip you with practical skills to improve your therapeutic practice and make a lasting difference to those you support.
Why Invest in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy Training?
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) has become a leading intervention for people with emotional dysregulation and personality difficulties. Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, it now helps individuals across a range of challenges, including self-harm and impulsive behaviours.
By attending this Dialectical Behaviour Therapy training, you will:
-
Gain strategies that empower clients to manage overwhelming emotions
-
Help people reduce harmful behaviours such as self-harm
-
Teach skills that improve relationships and communication
-
Support long-term resilience and healthier coping mechanisms
In other words, DBT equips both you and your clients with tools that promote stability and hope.
What You Will Learn
The course provides more than theory. It focuses on practical skills you can use straight away. Over three days, our trainers will guide you through DBT’s four key modules:
-
Mindfulness: increasing present-moment awareness
-
Distress tolerance: helping clients survive crises without worsening them
-
Emotion regulation: building strategies for managing intense emotions
-
Interpersonal effectiveness: improving communication and relationships
In addition, you will practise teaching DBT skills in both individual and group settings. By the end of the training, you will feel confident applying DBT techniques to your own therapeutic work.
