Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) works by bringing together two techniques: ways to change behavior based on the methods of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and ways to better tolerate life as it is today through mindfulness and meditation.
Marsha Linehan, Ph.D. of the University of Washington is the founder of DBT. For an excellent article about the history and benefits of DBT and an interview with Marsha Linehan, go to:
