DBT Assumptions: Exploring Opposite Action

In this session, led by Stephanie Vaughn, Psy.D., we explore the crucial aspects of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) that focus on clients learning new behaviors and mastering the art of opposite action. Discover the significance of applying these skills in real-life contexts and how phone coaching plays a pivotal role in this process.
Here are the most important highlights from the video:
* Contextual learning ensures that clients can generalize the skills they acquire in therapy to real-world situations.
* Phone coaching offers real-time intervention, helping clients to apply techniques like opposite action during challenging moments.
* Opposite action involves countering immediate emotional impulses, allowing clients to develop more balanced reactions to triggering situations.
