Touchstone Life Coaching - DBT SKILLS
Each person has a soul. Each soul yearns, often, underneath the everyday lives that
we lead to be much more fully known, felt, and expressed. Our lives have connection and meaning to the universe.
Each life holds sacred purpose. It is in this universal garden of life that life truly is full of new
beginnings. Each new beginning is a further conscious awakening on the journey that is living an examined life.

Dialectical Behavioral Training (DBT)
Dialectical Behavioral Training (DBT) is a therapy or program that was developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan for those diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder. However, since DBT works largely from a base of Cognitive Behavioral Model (CBT therapy) life coaching can assist and support the client in continuing to practice DBT skills as well as provide education and support toward the client's understanding of how the basic principles of DBT can be applied in much broader ways in life generally for anyone.
Concepts and practice of Radical Acceptance and Mindfulness Practice are certainly not limited to either DBT or CBT (or therapy) and are also not limited to those diagnosed with BPD. They have much wider and very effective application in daily life for anyone interested in enhancing their over-all coping skills and anyone who would identify a need to relax more, slow down worry or troubling negative thoughts, improve the quality of their sleep and so forth. © A.J.

DBT Skills Practice Support
Dialectical Behavioral Training (DBT) is a therapy or program that was developed by Dr. Marsha
Linehan for those diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Despite its original target population DBT
has also become a method learned and practiced by those who are close to someone with BPD as well.
However, since DBT works largely from a base of Cognitive Behavioral Model (CBT therapy)
life coaching can assist and support the client in continuing to practice DBT skills as well as provide
education and support toward the client's understanding of how the basic principles of DBT can be applied
in much broader ways in life generally for anyone.
Concepts and practice of Radical Acceptance and Mindfulness Practice are certainly not limited
to either DBT or CBT (or therapy) and are also not limited to those diagnosed with BPD. They have much wider
and very effective application in daily - when also coupled with Buddhist philosophical concepts and applied
self psychology in life for anyone interested in enhancing their over-all coping skills and anyone who would
identify a need to relax more, slow down worry or troubling negative thoughts, improve the quality of their
sleep and so forth.
The Life Coaching DBT Support Coaching that I do is not, in any way, a sustitute for DBT
Skill Therapy. What I do in working with clients with BPD is support and assist in over-all understanding
of DBT Skills Practice. I do not do this in the same way that a DBT therapist would.

As a life coach I provide a caring, compassionate, safe, confidential, non judgemental, validating and
supportive relationship within which clients can feel empowered to explore their present-day needs. I
essentially act as a human mirror for my clients. I share with my clients an outside and unbiased
perspective as to what I observe in listening to their feelings, experiences, and concerns.
Personal Coaching is not counseling or therapy or a substitute for either.
Touchstone Life Coaching can assist you with any of the following:
