Dialectical Behavioural Therapy is a technique that is used by distressed people to cope with difficult situations. “It involves engaging in activities or strategies that can help shift focus away from negative thoughts or overwhelming emotions. This skill aims to increase mindfulness, self-soothing, and distraction techniques to effectively manage distress and promote emotional well-being,” wrote Therapist Gessica Di Stefano.(Unsplash)
