Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) at Brighter Horizons Brighton

Brighter Horizons Brighton offers standardised Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) including individual and group therapy. DBT is one of the only evidence based models for the treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and is recommended in the NICE (2009) guidelines. DBT is a team based approach and includes weekly individual sessions, group skills training, between session skills coaching and consultation meetings. Brighter Horizons Brighton is one of the only fully adherent independent DBT services within the UK. For more information about DBT provided by our team, please click here.

We work effectively with people both with and without a personality disorder diagnosis. We teach individuals how to cope with the problems they face using DBT skills. The types of problems we typically work with include:

• Impulsivity
• Self harm 
• Relationship difficulties
• Emotional instability (including intense feelings or rapid mood changes)
• Difficulties understanding and managing emotions
• Disconnection from self/others
• Feeling as though you are surviving rather than living
• Recurrent dysfunctional patterns or ways of coping with stress

If you relate to any of these difficulties, we may be able to help you. Please contact us for more information or to arrange an assessment.
