We operate from the standpoint that DBT works best when all components of the treatment are offered as a package deal. So you can expect things to be done at DBT of KC in a way that’s true to the model. Some things are a little different about this particular type of therapy that often looks, feels, and takes place differently than other therapy models you might expect, or be used to. Each treatment session is completed with a specific hierarchy approach, each skills group has a specific order of business, each coaching call and consultation team meeting follow an agenda. With consistency and predictability, you begin to allow yourself the opportunity to challenge old patterns in thinking and behavior. As in all things DBT, there is a surprising amount of flexibility when you create structure in the basics. We’re happy to answer any questions you have about the model, but you can read a little bit more about the four things that make DBT of KC a team that practices the model true to form.
