Adapting your DBT Programme for
Substance Use Disorders
27-28 February 2014
This two-day workshop covers the modifications made when applying
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to clients with Borderline Personality
Disorder (BPD) and substance use disorders. Participants specifically learn
how DBT, when applied to populations with co-morbid disorders, differs from
standard DBT for BPD clients in the way that DBT is targeted, how
behavioural skills are taught in skills training group, how to engage clients in
therapy at the beginning of treatment, strategies for not losing clients during
treatment, and how therapists are supported when clients are in danger of
dropping out of therapy.
This workshop is intended for those who have knowledge of standard DBT.
