At DBT Center of Orange County we are dedicated to providing our patients with comprehensive DBT and other evidenced-based therapies in a warm, nonjudgmental and collaborative environment. We offer individual therapy for individuals six (6) and older (DBT-C), as well as skills training groups for individuals thirteen (13) and older. DBT is the most thoroughly researched treatment for people with self-harm and suicidal behaviors. DBT offers consistent significant findings in reducing the frequency of self-harm behaviors, as well as reducing in patient admission episodes and improving global functioning and adjustment. Our team of health care providers includes intensively trained DBT clinicians, Psychologists and Trauma Therapists. To ensure the highest standards of excellence and collaboration in each patient’s care we work closely with local psychiatrists, registered dieticians and physicians.

What is DBT?

DBT is a research-based cognitive behavioral treatment model that was originally developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan to treat chronically suicidal individuals diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD). DBT is recognized as the gold standard psychological treatment for this population. Research has shown it's effectiveness in treating a wide range of other psychological problems such as eating disorders, suicidal and self-harm behavior, substance abuse, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. DBT addresses problems with emotion regulation, managing behaviors, and challenging and changing certain thought patterns that can lead to emotional reactivity and interfere with relationships and our ability to build a Life Worth Living. DBT maintains that some people have strong reactions to stimuli and experience high levels of arousal that need more time to return to baseline after these events occur. Learning DBT skills helps us manage feelings of having constant ‘crises’ and/or experiencing extreme emotions.
