Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was created by a woman named Marsha Linehan in the 1980s. The skills she created are now taught all over the world. DBT can improve depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, and other mental health struggles. We are Kate and Michelle, two mental health therapists in Seattle, WA. We have been teaching DBT groups as a team for years. Whether you've never heard of DBT before or are experienced with DBT skills, this podcast is here to help you use DBT skills in your daily life.

With some recent stories in the news that have been challenging to hear, Kate and Michelle each choose a DBT skill from each module and share how that skill can be helpful when consuming media.

  • What We Know About Skills Now That We Wish We Knew Then
    Aug 26 2026

    Learning DBT skills takes time and practice to truly understand and integrate what the skills actually look like in our lives. Kate and Michelle each discuss three DBT skills they once misunderstood. They explain their former belief about each skill compared to their current understanding. Kate chose wise mind, mindfulness and check the facts while Michelle chose PLEASE, GIVE and being non-judgmental.
