About Us
Brighter Horizons Brighton is a specialist Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) team based in Brighton and Sussex. We provide compassionate, evidence-based DBT in both individual and group formats, following the NICE (2009) guidelines for the treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), also known as Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (EUPD). We work with both adults and adolescents. Our supportive, team-based approach includes all four core modes of the evidence-based DBT model: weekly individual sessions, group skills training, between-session skills coaching, and weekly consultation meetings. We offer full DBT programmes as well as individualised and DBT-informed therapy, working with people who have a BPD/EUPD diagnosis or those who relate to the emotional and relational difficulties associated with it. Our services are available across Brighton & Hove, East Sussex (Eastbourne) and West Sussex (Worthing).
