How We Help
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy - DBT
What is DBT? How does DBT help teens with anxiety in Somerset County?" Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches you how to control your mind rather than letting it control you. Ithelps you manage emotions, improve relationships, and build healthier coping skills through practical, supportive, real-life strategies.
DBT skills are life skills. You'll learn self-acceptance. You'll discover how to accomplish your goals and you'll improve your overall mental health.
You'll learn to accept your experiences, rather than suppressing and avoiding them. That's just some of what learning DBT can do for you.
At Prime Therapy, our step-by-step DBT approach will teach you the skills that will enhance your mindfulness. You'll learn distress tolerance. You'll understand emotion regulation, and address relationship effectiveness.
Our Founder, Lee Ann has developed a highly effective version of the original DBT Skills Manual. It's based upon her 17+ years of experience. You'll have your own copy to keep. We'll use it with you during your sessions.
