Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) was specifically developed by Marsha Linehan to treat borderline personality disorder. It combines elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with concepts from Eastern mindfulness practices, and focuses on teaching individuals skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. DBT has been shown to be effective in reducing self-harm behaviors, suicide attempts, and hospitalization rates in individuals with borderline personality disorder.
