Components of DBT | Dialectical Behavioural Therapy | Socially souled
This class, facilitated by Ms. Shivika Chadha, an experienced psychotherapist, provides an insightful look into the practical techniques of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).Part 2 of the Components of DBT series focuses on the “change” side of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, with an emphasis on validation, behavioural analysis, and problem-solving. We begin with validation, which helps us acknowledge and accept our thoughts, emotions, and experiences with understanding rather than judgement. This step builds emotional safety, reduces intensity, and strengthens self-compassion, making change feel more achievable. We then move into behavioural analysis, where we break down situations to identify triggers, thoughts, actions, and consequences .Once we understand the why, we apply problem-solving to explore options, evaluate outcomes, and choose healthier, more balanced responses that support long-term wellbeing and personal growth.
Along with the core DBT modules, these skills offer powerful benefits. They help us regulate emotions more effectively, improve communication and relationships, cope with stress in healthier ways, and reduce impulsive or reactive behaviours. Over time, DBT encourages emotional resilience, clearer thinking, better boundaries, and a more intentional approach to daily life, making it easier to navigate challenges with calm, confidence, and clarity.
