This presentation will offer a brief overview of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and how it treats Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). I will give reasons for why not all, but perhaps some survivors of sex trafficking would benefit from DBT. We will review the biosocial theory looking at how biological vulnerabilities and environmental invalidations combine to create the symptoms and behaviors present in BPD. A sample of DBT skills will be reviewed to demonstrate how skills can be utilized by survivors as well as by supporters to enhance their positive impact. The presentation will conclude with a brief description of how DBT treats Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
