Adolescent Multi-Family DBT DBT is a mindfullness-based treatment program that focuses on teaching a specific set of skills to help clients relinquish long-held patterns of avoidance, and build, or rebuild, a "life worth living". In our efforts to remain fully adherent to the DBT model as it was designed by Dr. Marsha Linehan, it is also a requirement that all adolescents are seen in individual DBT therapy sessions on a weekly basis within our practice.
