- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills, Made Practical
DBT is a skills-based approach built around a balance — accepting yourself as you are while working to change — taught through four skill sets: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. It has strong randomized-trial support, particularly for chronic emotion dysregulation and self-harm. - TIPP for crisis distress tolerance

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills, Made Practical - The STOP Skill: A DBT Technique for Crisis Moments
The STOP skill — Stop, Take a step back, Observe, Proceed mindfully — is a DBT distress-tolerance technique designed to interrupt impulsive, emotion-driven action in crisis moments. It creates a brief deliberate pause between an emotional trigger and a response, allowing the rational mind to re-engage. DBT as a whole has strong RCT evidence; the STOP skill is a defined component of that validated package. - Distress Tolerance Skills, Made Practical
Distress tolerance skills, primarily from DBT, are short-term tools for surviving a crisis — intense emotional pain, overwhelming urges, or acute situational stress — without making things worse. They don’t solve the problem; they get you through the peak so problem-solving becomes possible again. DBT as a whole has strong randomized-trial support, particularly for borderline personality disorder and emotion dysregulation. - DEAR MAN for interpersonal effectiveness
A structured script — Describe, Express, Assert, Reinforce, Mindful, Appear confident, Negotiate — for asking and saying no.
