8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. BOTH DAYS
The instructor asks participants plan to attend both full day sessions.
Cincinnati Center for DBT will present a 2-day workshop as an introduction to the Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) model of treatment, with an emphasis on experiential learning of some of the skills that are taught to clients in DBT.
DBT is the empirically-supported treatment developed by Marsha Linehan, PhD, ABPP, to treat clients with borderline personality disorder (BPD), emotion dysregulation, suicidality and self-harm, and/or interpersonal difficulties. The primary target audience for this workshop are mental health clinicians who are interested in learning about DBT, or for those familiar with the treatment, getting a refresher on the DBT model and skills and learning some of the new skills.
The 2-day workshop is introductory and is just one component of the training needed to develop full competence to provide DBT treatment. Although clinicians cannot claim to be intensively trained DBT clinicians following this workshop, the workshop can provide clinicians understanding of who might benefit from DBT; how to prepare a client for participation in DBT; and basic DBT approaches, strategies, and skills to use in DBT-informed sessions.
The focus of this workshop is on DBT strategies as applied to adults, though participants will likely be able to generalize the material to adolescents.
2-Day Workshop Objectives:
By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:
1. List the five functions of a comprehensive treatment and the modes of DBT that meet each function
2. List the three main components of the biosocial theory of borderline personality disorder
3. Define and articulate at least one example each of mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation skills.
4. List and describe three of the dialectical dilemmas/secondary targets of DBT.
5. Explain how to use at least one commitment strategy to increase clients’ commitment to treatment.
6. Articulate the five critical components of a behavioral chain analysis.
7. Define validation and at least two different levels of validation.
Please note: Each session will begin at 8:30 a.m. and end at 4:30 p.m. with a 50 minute lunch. Lunch is not provided however there is a microwave and refrigerator in the room and items can be delivered to the lobby.
