“Emotions don’t kill you.”
A discussion between Nadine and Oakland DBT therapist Jonny Cragg about how taking emotional inventories (in a therapeutic modality called DBT) tailor therapeutic skills to emotional intensity. High emotions need robust interventions, while moderate ones require cognitive strategies. Mindfulness in DBT helps manage emotions and communication.
However, challenges include accurately observing emotions and applying strategies consistently. The approach is effective but needs practice and awareness, particularly for those with conditions like ADHD or borderline personality disorder. DBT focuses on present-moment regulation and techniques for immediate control, though deeper trauma may require additional treatments.
