Veronica O. Bowlan, LSW<br />

1.5 hours Focus: Clinical Integrated Interventions<br />

Description:<br />

behaviors such as rage and self-injury. DBT offers skills and strategies to learn how to recognize and manage<br />

skills such as mindfulness, radical acceptance and validation, and discusses co-occurring substance use issues.<br />

Educational Objectives: Participants will be able to:<br />

1. Cite DSM-IV-TR criteria for Borderline Personality Disorder;<br />

2. Describe major components of the DBT treatment model;<br />

3. Identify DBT skills that are effective for coping with emotional dysregulation.<br />
