DBT is an evidence-based treatment best known for helping with strong emotions (anger, fear, shame, sadness, etc.) and behaviours associated with them. It is more structured, and focused on doing things differently. The main skills domains in DBT are mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance (not making things worse when upset), and interpersonal effectiveness.

Psychodynamic therapy is an evidence-based treatment that explores more than teaches. This type of treatment helps you discover implicit (unconscious) patterns affecting your life, like relationship patterns, or what emotions you tend to focus on or avoid. It also helps understand how things became the way they are. With enough insight, you can either accept things as they are, or change them.

DBT skills coaching is individual work focused on helping people (with or without disorders) integrate DBT skills into their lives. The goal is to learn how to do something different consistently.

DBT skills training groups are courses for learning effective coping skills. They can be stand-alone or part of a comprehensive DBT protocol. Groups are half day (3rs) or full day (6hrs).
