Why DBT: DBT appeals to me because I love the comprehensive aspects. It is excellent for
individuals who would like a more involved approach to therapy that includes beneficial skills

me to feel connected to therapy, and DBT specifically.
“But things work out, you know? Even if it doesn’t feel okay for a long time, or even if it
feels like things will never be okay again, everything works out in the end.”
