DBT Skills Refresher: Helping Clients Navigate Distress 


DBT Skills Refresher: Helping Clients Navigate Distress 


1:30 pm – 3:00 pm
August 12, 2026

This booster reinforces the practical, in-the-moment side of Dialectical Behavior Therapy for professionals supporting clients with intense emotions, crisis behaviors, and interpersonal challenges. Participants will refresh the four skills modules and the acceptance-and-change dialectic at the heart of DBT, then focus on coaching clients through specific skills when it matters most. The session emphasizes real-world application across the range of behavioral health roles, helping each participant apply these skills in a way that fits their work.
Learning Objectives:
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
1. Revisit DBT foundations with an advanced lens
2. Explore areas clinicians may overlook or apply automatically
3. Surface common gaps and critical cultural considerations
4. Integrate emerging practices for deepened therapeutic impact
