The Four Stages and Targets of DBT Treatment

DBT includes four stages. There isn’t a timeline or specific order for moving through them, but most patients begin at behavioral stabilization.
In this presentation, Dr. Stephanie Vaughn, Psy.D., summarizes the essential components of the 4 stages and targets of DBT.
Here are some highlights we’ve extracted from this video:
1. Standard DBT includes 4 stages and a pre-treatment phase.
2. Most patients begin in Stage 1, which involves behavioral stabilization.
3. Childhood history and histories of trauma aren’t addressed until Stage 2.

Happened upon this as a DBT patient looking for DBT videos. My therapist has been mentioning stage 3 and 4 indirectly and it's cool to find out that it's all part of the framework!
