The DBT skill Cope Ahead is all about preparing yourself before stress shows up. Instead of waiting until emotions feel overwhelming, Cope Ahead helps you imagine the situation, identify what might be tough, and plan the skills you’ll use to move through it with confidence.

From grounding techniques to self-soothing strategies, practicing Cope Ahead can reduce anxiety, strengthen emotional resilience, and make challenging moments feel more manageable. It’s a powerful tool for anyone navigating anxiety, depression, or high-stress situations.

Rooted in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), TIPP skills are designed to help your body cool down before your mind can catch up. Each step targets your body’s stress response so you can move from crisis to calm:

T – Temperature: Splash cold water on your face, hold an ice pack, or step outside into cool air. This slows your heart rate and triggers your body’s natural calming reflex.
I – Intense Exercise: Do short bursts of movement — jumping jacks, squats, a brisk walk — to release adrenaline and reduce emotional intensity.
P – Paced Breathing: Inhale slowly for 4 seconds, exhale for 6. Deep, controlled breathing signals safety to your nervous system.
P – Paired Muscle Relaxation: Tense, then release different muscle groups while breathing deeply to release tension and restore balance.

When emotions run high, it can feel impossible to think clearly or calm down — that’s when TIPP skills come in.

The Story of THIRA

In 1991, Dr. Moore founded The Moore Center (now Eating Recovery Center of Washington), the longest-established treatment center specializing in eating disorder treatment in the Pacific Northwest. In her many years of clinical experience she has worked with patients dealing with a wide variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, among others. These accomplishments are what has lead her to open THIRA Health. THIRA Health’s mission is to help adolescents and women work through traumatic life experiences and learn new coping skills. Soon after opening our doors Dr. Moore brought on Dr. Kathryn Korslund, as our Clinical Director. Having worked under Dr. Marsha Linehan during the development of DBT, Dr. Korslund has brought that expertise to THIRA, and has been a vital force in tailoring THIRA’s IOP and PHP programs following Dr. Linehan’s DBT guidelines. DBT has been proven to be an effective treatment for a wide variety of mental illnesses including but not limited to borderline personality disorder, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders.
