Skip to content Embarking on the path to recovery from addiction is a profound journey that often requires a multifaceted approach. At Long Beach Detox, we are committed to providing comprehensive and effective therapeutic interventions to support individuals on their recovery journey. One such evidence-based approach that we embrace is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a therapeutic modality developed by Dr. Marsha M. Linehan to address emotional dysregulation, particularly in individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Over the years, DBT has proven to be effective in treating a range of mental health conditions, including substance use disorders. DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices, emphasizing the integration of acceptance and change strategies.
DBT equips individuals with practical skills to identify, understand, and regulate their emotions. This is particularly beneficial for those struggling with substance use disorders, as emotional dysregulation often contributes to the cycle of addiction.
The interpersonal effectiveness skills taught in DBT empower individuals to communicate more assertively, set boundaries, and navigate relationships more effectively. Strengthening interpersonal skills is vital for building a supportive network during recovery.
Incorporating mindfulness practices into daily life allows individuals to develop a non-judgmental awareness of the present moment. This fosters acceptance of oneself and the circumstances, reducing the likelihood of engaging in impulsive and destructive behaviors.
Life is filled with challenges, and learning to tolerate distress without resorting to maladaptive coping mechanisms is a cornerstone of DBT. This skill is invaluable in preventing relapse during difficult times.
Long Beach Detox integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy into our comprehensive addiction treatment approach. Here’s how we implement DBT to support individuals on their recovery journey:
Recognizing the uniqueness of each individual’s journey, we tailor treatment plans to address specific needs and goals. DBT is incorporated based on the individual’s preferences and the compatibility of the program with their overall recovery plan.
Trained and experienced therapists at Long Beach Detox provide guidance and support throughout the DBT process. Our team ensures that individuals understand and feel comfortable with each aspect of DBT, fostering a sense of empowerment and self-discovery.
DBT is often implemented through a combination of group and individual therapy sessions. Group sessions provide a supportive environment for skill-building and peer interaction, while individual sessions allow for personalized exploration and application of DBT principles.
DBT is seamlessly integrated into our comprehensive addiction treatment approach. Recognizing the interconnectedness of emotional well-being and addiction, our program addresses both aspects to promote holistic healing and recovery.
