Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based form of psychotherapy originally developed by Marsha Linehan to treat borderline personality disorder, combining cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness and acceptance strategies. Therapists use DBT to help clients manage intense emotions, reduce self-destructive behaviors, and build skills in distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
