Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) in its fully adherent form is a comprehensive intervention involving individual, group, and phone coaching sessions that addresses complex psychological conditions including suicidality, personality disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Evidence for briefer formats incorporating the group skills training format have been successful for many types of conditions, which includes alcohol and substance use disorders. DBT skills training (DBT-ST) involves structured lessons for learning skills in 5 areas: mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and addiction. The current intervention is an internet-delivered version of DBT-ST which aims to teach people the same 5 areas of skills in an online environment with a chatbot and interactive format.
