This is true. Even as we develop #WichitaDBT, here in Kansas, we're networking with other DBT and DBT-informed providers to support fidelity practices and the broadening of availability in our community and across the State. Thanks for posting this, @PortlandDBTI #DBT #kansasDBT #wichita #TherapistsConnect #TherapistTwitter

This week in therapy ⬇️ Patient: I told my adult daughter I’m sorry & I did my best raising her, but that doesn’t seem to satisfy her. Me: Maybe try, “I didn’t understand what you needed. What can I do better now?” #thread 🧵

"One of the first questions I ask patients is, When did your childhood end? When did you start protecting or taking care of someone else? When did you stop being yourself, and start filling a role?" Love this from Edith Eger (@DrEdithEger1) in The Gift #TherapistsConnect

Grouchy feelings are a normal part of life, but they can sometimes be overwhelming for young children. Help little ones use the “Breathe, Think, Do” strategy to calm down, identify their feelings, and work to solve problems. m.sesame.org/breathethinkdot…

#dbt4adhd Once you sense you're becoming frustrated and fractured, use STOP: Stop what you're doing, don't move a muscle; Take a breath, recollecting your attention homeward into your body at present; Observe what is happening externally and internally, simply noticing; and Proceed mindfully, with care and intention. Repeat as needed. #dbt #adhd #adultadhd #mindfulness #TherapistsConnect #TherapistTwitter
