We don't "DO" DBT.
We are Dialectical Behavior Therapy Clinicians.
DBT is balance.
DBT is a way of life.
DBT is a way of thinking.
DBT is acceptance and change.
DBT is courage to do something new.
Let's DO what works, instead of what should work!

DID YOU KNOW
THAT DBT ACTUALLY HAS
FOUR STAGES TO TREATMENT?
And when you go to a DBT program, you only get ONE?
Mental Health Treatment SHOULD be curative in focus, just as all other medicine is.
Just "better" is not enough!
Atlanta DBT has developed the first curriculum for Stage III and IV DBT, to ensure complete treatment. Our goal is that once you have a remission of symptoms, it stays that way.
WHY US?
Our team leader is Georgia's
FIRST Intensively Trained DBT Clinician AND FIRST Intensively Trained RO-DBT Clinician with over THIRTY-THREE years of experience in medicine & behavioral health.
The only program worldwide
to see this treatment through
ALL 4 stages to true completion.
