Breaking the Cycle: A Practical Guide to Changing Your Patterns with DBT
Break the cycle of repeating patterns using real DBT skills. When you keep doing something you can't quite explain, whether it's snapping at someone you love or reaching for a habit you'd rather not, it can feel like nothing will ever change. Those patterns aren't a failure of willpower; they're something that can be understood and interrupted.
Created by TheraHive Co-Founders Dr. Alicia Smart, PsyD and Dr. Jesse Finkelstein, PsyD (both DBT-Linehan Board of Certification Certified Clinicians), this mini course teaches chain analysis, a DBT tool for tracing exactly how a behavior happened, moment by moment. Whether you're trying to understand one specific moment or a pattern that keeps repeating, a clearer way to see it is closer than you think.
