At the heart of our mission is a commitment to ensuring excellence and adherence to the highest standards in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Our goal is to serve the public and relevant stakeholders by offering a trusted resource for identifying providers and programs that deliver DBT in alignment with the evidence-based research established by Dr. Linehan and her colleagues.
Our certification process rigorously assesses clinicians to ensure they possess the knowledge and skills essential for delivering DBT with adherence to the model as it has been researched. Similarly, we evaluate DBT programs to verify they have the necessary components and organizational structure to implement DBT with fidelity.
