Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to help people who struggle with intense emotions, unhealthy coping patterns, or difficulties in relationships. DBT combines strategies of acceptance and change, supporting clients to regulate emotions, reduce harmful behaviours, and build a more balanced, fulfilling life.
​
At Core Connections Psychology Centre, we provide DBT-informed therapy for individuals, teens, and families at our offices in Collingwood and Newmarket, as well as virtually across Ontario.
Our therapists use DBT to help clients strengthen emotional regulation, improve communication, and increase resilience in the face of stress and life challenges.
DBT for Individual Therapy
DBT individual therapy helps clients build skills for managing overwhelming emotions, reducing self-destructive patterns, and improving quality of life.
DBT is particularly effective for clients experiencing:
-
Intense emotional swings or mood dysregulation
-
Anxiety, panic, or chronic stress
-
Depression, low self-worth, or feelings of emptiness
-
Impulsive or self-destructive behaviours
-
Trauma-related symptoms
-
Difficulty managing anger or conflict
​
​
Through DBT, clients learn to:
-
Identify and name emotions with clarity
-
Reduce harmful coping strategies and replace them with healthier alternatives
-
Develop mindfulness and distress tolerance skills
-
Improve self-compassion and emotional resilience
-
Build more balanced and fulfilling daily routines
​
Outcome: Greater stability, emotional balance, and healthier coping strategies for navigating life’s challenges.
