Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is specifically designed to help individuals manage difficult emotions and impulsive behaviors. It includes skill-building exercises and techniques to improve emotional regulation, mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult emotions and using values-based actions to move forward, but does not have as much emphasis on impulsivity control. Client-centered therapy and interpersonal therapy both primarily focus on improving interpersonal relationships and communication, rather than emotion regulation and impulsivity control.
