Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions without letting them run your life. At Galloway Recovery, we build it into treatment plans for people whose addiction or mental health struggles come with emotional overwhelm. You learn to sit with hard feelings, then respond instead of react.
How Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Works in Treatment
DBT teaches practical skills for handling intense emotions. In a session, you learn tools and then practice them, often through role-play and homework you bring back the next week. It targets urges to use, self-harm, anxiety, and relationships that keep falling apart.
The four skill areas are mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and getting along with others. Your clinician teaches you how to sit with a hard moment instead of reacting.
At Galloway Recovery, licensed clinicians fold DBT into your full treatment plan. As you or your loved one improves, they adjust the focus.
