After making an important decision to go to therapy, we face another task - choosing the right psychotherapist. One of the criteria may be the trend in which the therapist works. Each trend is characterized by specific methods and techniques that may prove particularly effective in treating specific disorders. What are the characteristics and main assumptions of dialectical behavioral psychotherapy? What do scientific studies say about the effectiveness of DBT therapy? Who is this therapeutic modality aimed at and who will it not help? And what is the availability of DBT psychotherapy in Poland? These and many other questions will be answered by Vivian Fiszer, a DBT therapist. The conversation will be led by Zofia Szynal. Vivian Fiszer - one of the founders and the first president of the Polish Society for Dialectical Behavioral Therapy PTDBT, member of the European Society for the Study of Personality Disorders, Association for Contextual Behavior Science, American Psychological Association. She has completed a number of courses and trainings (e.g. in 2014 with the author of this therapy, Prof. Linehan). She has created a team of DBT therapists, thanks to which she meets all the conditions required to conduct this therapy. She conducts trainings on dialectical behavioral therapy, individual and group therapy (DBT training) and works exclusively with people who suffer from personality disorders. For patients (and therapists), she has created a blog popularizing the 3-Wave CBT approach: emocj.pro.
