STOP is an effective DBT skill for people with BPD or emotional regulation difficulties because it creates a pause between impulse and action. By literally stopping, taking a step back, observing the situation, and proceeding mindfully, you can give your brain time to settle before reacting.

This helps reduce impulsive behaviours, prevent escalation, and build more balanced and effective responses.

Good luck 🧡

A classic DBT skill! DBT is an effective and evidence based treatment for BPD and it’s effective for treating a range of emotional regulation difficulties.

Don’t struggle on alone over Christmas. Christmas can be merry and bright and triggering a looming.
DBT skills can help you cope effectively with whatever the festive season throws at you.

Clinical services that are office based don’t suit everyone.

If you want to experience therapy in the outdoors, with therapeutic Shetland Ponies drop me a DM to find out how we can work together.

You’ve just got to love the Distress
Tolerance skills from DBT.

I think of them as a bridge that gets you from a heightened unpleasant state, to a state that is just a bit more capable.

These skills are for getting through distressing moments without making the situation worse. Once these skills have helped create a bit of stability, you are then in a better place to use your problem solving skills.

Good luck.
