If you often feel overwhelmed by emotions or struggle to cope in stressful situations, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) can help. DBT combines acceptance and change, offering practical skills to manage emotions and relationships more effectively.

At Thrive Therapy, DBT is currently offered as virtual counselling across Ontario. In the near future, in-person DBT will also be available in Toronto and Richmond Hill.

In DBT, you'll learn:


  • Emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills.


  • Mindfulness techniques for staying grounded.


  • Relationship strategies that balance your needs with others.

FAQ:  Is DBT only for people with borderline personality disorder?

No. DBT is widely used for anxiety, trauma recovery, emotional dysregulation, and burnout. At Thrive Therapy, DBT skills can be learned online across Ontario, with in-person sessions planned for Toronto and Richmond Hill soon.
