Being UnNormal

The Four Pillars of DBT


Listen Later

In this episode we welcome back Alicia Paz to talk to us about the 4 Pillars of DBT treatment.  DBT is a  modified type of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Its main goals are to teach people how to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and improve their relationships with others. DBT treatment includes 4 Pillars (or focus categories) which are:

  1. Mindfulness
  2. Distress Tolerance
  3. Interpersonal Effectiveness
  4. Emotional Regulation

Alicia breaks down what each pillar means individually and how they are used as a whole during DBT treatment. She also gives us some coping skills to use when we are feeling anxious or overwhelmed.
