DBT Essentials Toolkit for Music Therapists (23 CMTE credits)

Enhance Your Skills and Expand Your Impact in ways you only dreamed possible!

We invite you to embark on a transformative study that combines the power of music therapy with the evidence-based principles of Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Gain a solid foundation of practical life skills and music therapy interventions to enrich your practice and open up new possibilities for client support!

A wealth of material, resources, and learning opportunities are all included in this program for a fraction of the cost of what they would be individually, and will save you time and unnecessary headaches from trying to figure it all out on your own.

What is DBT?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a popular and effective evidence based therapy model and set of personal growth tools created by Dr. Marsha Linehan. DBT uses skills training to support people in replacing maladaptive behaviors with skillful behaviors, in responding to life rather than reacting, and can enhance the lives of all.

Gain skills to help you as clinician to:

• address a wide range of client needs comprehensively in managing emotions, improving interpersonal relationships, and developing coping skills.

• be more versatile and effective in your therapeutic interventions, tailor interventions more precisely to individual needs, address a wider range of issues, and facilitate deeper therapeutic work.

• find new opportunities for collaboration and professional respect

Clients will gain effective tools for:

• managing crises

• handling distress

• navigating emotional challenges

• gaining improved overall stability and functioning

On a personal level:

• manage your own emotions more effectively

• reduce impulsivity

• improve your ability to handle stress
