Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Speak to an Addiction Specialist Now

One of the most effective therapy options for people facing addiction and other mental health concerns is dialectical behavior therapy. This therapeutic technique can help you identify and understand the underlying cause of the challenges you face. At BlueCrest Recovery, we offer addiction therapy programs that rely on cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies.

Call BlueCrest Recovery at [DirectNumber] for more information about our dialectical behavior therapy program.

What Is Dialectical Behavior Therapy?

A dialectical behavior therapy program is a type of talk therapy that works well for people who tend to experience emotions strongly. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) uses the strategies of cognitive-behavioral therapy and tweaks them to treat a variety of conditions, including:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Suicidal behavior
  • Personality disorders
  • Substance use disorders
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

A DBT program can help you understand and accept the difficult feelings you may experience while also teaching you ways of coping with those feelings in healthier ways. By learning how to cope, you can begin to make positive changes in your life.

The word “dialectical” refers to trying to accept two things that seem to oppose one another. During a DBT program, you will learn to accept your current circumstances and behaviors while still learning how to make changes to improve.

The difference between cognitive-behavioral therapy and a dialectical behavior therapy program is that extra step: accepting yourself as you are.
It can be an excellent choice if you have committed yourself to make changes, if you can work hard, and if you can focus on your present and future more than your past.

Techniques of Our Dialectical Behavior Therapy Program in NJ

At our dialectical behavior therapy program in NJ, we want you to first come to terms with who you are and what challenges you face.

Your therapist can help you observe your thoughts, moods, and behaviors in a non-judgmental manner and encourage you to describe these thoughts in simple, easy-to-understand language.

Your therapist will also help you focus on goal-oriented behavior. Another technique that is crucial in DBT is learning about interpersonal effectiveness.
You can learn how to:

  • Say no
  • Let go of animosity
  • Communicate clearly
  • Ask for what you need

DBT also helps you learn how to manage and tolerate stress. By learning distress tolerance, you will be improving your skills of accepting change. DBT can show you how to make stressful situations better, how to self-soothe, and how to distract yourself.

One of the crucial things that dialectical behavior therapy offers is the chance to learn how to regulate your emotions. Unregulated emotions can lead to emotional challenges and relying on substances like alcohol and drugs for help.

This part of dialectical behavior therapy can help you feel less vulnerable and give you more confidence in your ability to manage how you feel.
