Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is the therapy approach for BPD with the most research studies showing its effectiveness. The clinic director received 10 years of intensive DBT training from Marsha Linehan who developed DBT over 30 years ago to help people with BPD, suicidal behavior, and self-injury. The DBT Center of San Diego (DBTCSD) is the only clinic in San Diego providing all DBT modalities to adults and adolescents: DBT individual therapy, skills groups, 24-hrs per day skills coaching, and therapist consultation team. We also treat other emotion dysregulation and impulse-control disorders such as bipolar disorder, explosive anger, and addiction.
We offer emotion regulation training utilizing heart rate variability biofeedback to help patients develop the ability to effectively breathe at their unique optimal slow breathing pace, which improves emotion regulation by activating the parasympathetic nervous system and increasing physiological harmony.
