This training will explore how DBT can be effectively integrated into addiction treatment. Participants will examine the robust body of evidence supporting DBT's effectiveness in increasing well-being and reducing relapse rates, supporting sustained recovery, and mitigating the day-to-day impact of stress and emotional upheaval that can undermine progress. Special emphasis will be placed on understanding how DBT can be tailored to meet the needs of clients with co-occurring disorders, and how its principles can be applied across various levels of care—from outpatient programs to residential treatment.
