DBT/CBT TherapistDecades of research. Measurable outcomes.
DBT is one of the most-studied therapies in mental health. Here's what clinical research shows.
Of adults with BPD no longer met criteria for the diagnosis after one year of DBT.
Stiglmayr et al., Borderline Personality Disorder and Emotion Dysregulation, 2014Fewer suicide attempts than with expert non-DBT therapists, in adults with BPD.
Linehan et al., Archives of General Psychiatry, 2006As likely to stay in treatment as clients in usual care.
Linehan et al., Archives of General Psychiatry, 1991What Makes a DBT Treatment Center?
The research above was done on the full model. Three things tell you whether a program is delivering it.
All four modes
A true DBT program runs on four legs: individual therapy, a weekly skills group, phone coaching between sessions, and a therapist consultation team. Drop any one, and it's no longer comprehensive DBT.
Board certification
The DBT-Linehan Board of Certification reviews programs against the original research protocol. Few programs have. FRTC is the only certified program in Colorado — see what certification actually means.
Structure and measurement
DBT is session-structured and data-driven. Diary cards, behavior tracking and target hierarchies are part of the work, so progress is measured rather than guessed at.
