If you are searching for a DBT therapist in Denver, you are already taking an important step. Finding the right provider can make a significant difference in your treatment experience and outcomes. This guide will help you understand what to look for in a DBT program and how Front Range Treatment Center can help.
What to Look for in a DBT Provider
Not all DBT is created equal. Many therapists in the Denver area describe their approach as “DBT-informed,” meaning they use some DBT techniques alongside other methods. While this can be helpful, it is different from comprehensive DBT, which includes all four components: individual therapy, skills group, phone coaching, and a therapist consultation team. Research shows that comprehensive DBT produces the strongest outcomes, so it is worth asking potential providers whether they offer the full treatment model.
Here are some questions to ask when evaluating a DBT program: Does the program offer both individual therapy and a weekly skills group? Do therapists participate in a weekly consultation team? Is phone coaching available between sessions? Are the therapists trained in DBT, and is the program certified by the DBT-Linehan Board of Certification?
Why Choose Front Range Treatment Center
Front Range Treatment Center is one of the few DBT-Linehan Board of Certification Certified programs in Colorado. This certification means our program has been independently reviewed and verified to meet the rigorous standards established by Dr. Marsha Linehan, the creator of DBT. Located in Greenwood Village near the Denver Tech Center, we serve clients throughout the Denver metro area including Littleton, Englewood, Centennial, Aurora, Highlands Ranch, and surrounding communities.
Our program offers comprehensive DBT for adults, adolescents, and children. We provide all four components of standard DBT: weekly individual therapy, skills training groups, between-session phone coaching, and a weekly therapist consultation team. We also offer specialized programming including a multi-family skills class and a DBT skills class for friends and family members who want to learn alongside their loved ones.
Who Can Benefit from DBT
DBT can help people dealing with a wide range of challenges. You might consider DBT if you experience intense emotions that feel difficult to manage, engage in self-destructive behaviors you want to change, struggle with relationships or interpersonal conflict, have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, depression, anxiety, PTSD, an eating disorder, or substance use issues, or feel like previous therapy approaches have not been effective for you.
