    What We Know About Skills Now That We Wish We Knew Then

    26/08/2026 | 52 mins.
    Learning DBT skills takes time and practice to truly understand and integrate what the skills actually look like in our lives. Kate and Michelle each discuss three DBT skills they once misunderstood. They explain their former belief about each skill compared to their current understanding. Kate chose wise mind, mindfulness and check the facts while Michelle chose PLEASE, GIVE and being non-judgmental.
