DBT

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

A skills-focused therapy built for big emotions, impulsive behavior, and the patterns that keep recovery out of reach.

DBT was developed to help people who experience emotions intensely — and it has become one of the most effective therapies for addiction, self-harm, suicidal thinking, and emotion regulation. Recovery Compass integrates DBT skills training (mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness) across our programs.

  • Individual DBT coaching
