Hi Debbie, Did you "get well" from continually practicing the DBT skills, or did you also train with a DBT place, eg. Marsha Linehan? Thanks
Debbie Corso
Hello, and thanks for your question! I learned DBT skills through an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and then attended an in-person clinic in the psychiatry department on a weekly basis for years. The program was based on Dr. Linehan's profound work, and I was fortunate enough to also have an individual DBT therapist (the same woman who ran the group) who helped me reinforce my studies. Thank you so much for your question!

Debbie Corso:
My psychiatrist told me I am at an age, 52 currently, where DBT would not help me because by this age a person is too set in their ways. I have asked several times to be added to our local DBT classes and this was his final response to me. Do you think this is true or can someone of my age or older still be helped by DBT therapy?
