DBT Program Arizona: Support for You and Your Family

DBT program Arizona

When you’re navigating addiction recovery, you need a program that helps you regulate emotions, manage stress, and build healthy relationships. At HART Rehab in Arizona, our DBT program Arizona combines evidence-based psychotherapy with mindfulness practices to form a comprehensive care approach tailored to support you and your family. With dialectical behavior therapy at its core, the program focuses on developing four key skill sets—mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness—to equip you with practical tools for lasting change.

What dialectical behavior therapy is

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, was developed in the 1970s by psychologist Marsha M. Linehan to treat borderline personality disorder [1]. Over time, DBT has proven effective for a wide range of mental health and substance use concerns, including mood disorders, self-harm behaviors, and addiction. The therapy balances acceptance of who you are with the challenge of change, creating a supportive environment for growth.

How dialectical behavior therapy works

A structured DBT program usually spans six months to a year, and sometimes longer depending on your needs [1]. The format includes:

• Pre-assessment to identify your strengths and target areas for improvement
• Weekly individual therapy sessions to set goals and review progress
• Group skills training to learn and practice new behaviors
• Telephone coaching for real-time support during crises

These components work together to foster accountability and steady progress, ensuring you engage actively in your recovery journey.

Benefits for addiction recovery

Integrating DBT into addiction treatment offers unique advantages:

• Improved emotional regulation, reducing triggers for substance use
• Enhanced distress tolerance, helping you navigate cravings and setbacks
• Stronger interpersonal effectiveness, supporting healthier relationships
• Reduced self-injury and suicidal behaviors, promoting overall safety

By mastering these skills, you gain the support necessary for lasting recovery and a more balanced life.
