How DBT Can Help You


Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) is a transformative approach to healing that empowers individuals to navigate life's challenges with resilience, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. Restorative Mind Body Connections, serving clients across all throughout Ontario, specializes in delivering DBT to those who are ready to embrace change and cultivate a life worth living.

Can Dialectical Behavioural Therapy Help You?

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy is particularly well-suited for individuals wanting virtual appointments throughout Ontario, or in person appointments in Peterborough and Courtice Ontario who suffer with:

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD): DBT was initially developed to treat BPD, and it remains one of the most effective therapies for managing the intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties associated with this condition.

Emotion Dysregulation Issues: Whether you're experiencing overwhelming emotions, frequent mood swings, or difficulty coping with stress, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy provides practical skills to help you regulate your emotions and build emotional resilience.

Self-Harming Behaviours: DBT offers strategies to address self-destructive behaviours such as self-harm and suicidal ideation, providing healthier alternatives for coping with distressing emotions and reducing the risk of harm.

Substance Use DisordersWhether you're struggling with alcohol, drugs, or other addictive substances, DBT offers practical skills to help you cope with cravings, manage triggers, and navigate the challenges of recovery with resilience and determination.

Co-occurring Mental Health Conditions: Many individuals with addiction also struggle with underlying mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, or trauma. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy addresses these co-occurring conditions holistically, providing integrated treatment to promote lasting healing and well-being.

Chronic Relapsing: If you've experienced multiple relapses on your journey to recovery, DBT offers a fresh perspective and a new set of tools to help you break the cycle of addiction and maintain long-term sobriety.

With Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, we can also provide help and hope to family members and loved ones of those struggling with addiction. Through DBT, we will work to repair relationships, rebuild trust, and foster a supportive environment for recovery.
