More about DBT Online

Who Can Benefit From Online Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) was originally developed to support individuals living with Borderline Personality Disorder. Over time, it has also shown to be helpful for people facing a variety of other mental health and neurodiverse challenges.

What You Will Learn In The DBT Modules

About Our Online Dialectical behaviour therapy course

What to expect from our UK Based online DBT Courses

Our online Dialectical Behavioural Therapy is a 25-week module based course during which time the client works on four skill-based areas in a group setting while working on individual issues with their designated therapist*. Both components are necessary as clients become able to apply new skills in real life. It is highly recommended that clients complete each module twice. This is because learning to apply the skills during the first six months takes considerable effort and the second six-month period is where learning is compounded and becomes more integrated with the clients’ life and thinking style.

Each client takes part in a 2½ hour small online group session each week and full course members will have a one-hour session with a DBT therapist each week alongside phone coaching as agreed with your therapist.

*1-1 therapy work is only included with the full online course

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Online DBT Courses

What Would You Like To Know?

Our aim is to see you within 48 hours of contacting us.

Groups are run by one or two facilitators, each group begins with a check in, where you share with the group and skills trainers how you are doing and how your week has been. This is followed by a short mindfulness activity, to help ground and to try put different techniques to assist with your own practice.

Next, we look at the homework that was set from the previous week, you will be invited to share your homework and skills practice. It allows you to get feedback from the skills trainers in case of any problems encountered, it also serves as a valuable learning tool for other group members to hear how skills are being practiced in different contexts. Please not there is no requirement to share personal information or anything in depth, however it is an effective way of encouraging skills practice and increasing your mastery of skills over time. We will then look at the skills card to see how skills practice generally across the week has been. Usually at this point there will be a short comfort break.

We will then move on to the new skills being taught, this will involve teaching points, discussions, activities and examples to help explore Important concepts or aspects of the skills. We try to make there’s teaching sessions as interactive and as engaging as possible. There will always be opportunities to ask questions and practice the skills in group. Before finishing, the homework and skills practice will be set. As group comes to a close there’s a final check out and chance to ask questions.

The WhatsApp group is the primary method of communication for all things group related. Any information about group, homework or relevant links will all be posted in the group chat. It is also an opportunity to get skills advice or help with your homework.
