Therapy & approach

Dialectical Behavioural (DBT)

Skills for riding big emotions without being swept away.

Clinically reviewed by the Healing Space Therapy clinical team

What is it

DBT combines acceptance and change, teaching concrete skills across four areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. It was developed for intense emotional experiences and is well suited to overwhelm, self-harm urges, and relationships that feel like a rollercoaster.

Our approach

We draw on DBT skills to help you steady intense emotions and navigate relationships, integrated into individual, trauma-informed therapy rather than delivered as a rigid programme.

Why connect with us

If emotions often feel too big or too fast, DBT skills can give you footing. Our therapists can help you build them — book a consultation to begin.
