Psychiatry, psychology, mental, mind matters

DBT? I worked for a year as a DBT therapist in a community team. I didn't get on with it but think that's more to do with my stuff (and a poor team) than the therapy.

Was left with the impression that it gave a comprehensive suite of skills to manage self harming behaviour but was less effective at addressing the underlying distress.
Totally bought into the benefits of mindfulness though.

One thing that became abundantly clear from attending DBT courses was that when it comes to evidence and research, team Linehan really have got their shit together.
