DBT combines CBT with eastern philosophy, lots of validation, and mindfulness techniques. It was developed for people with lots of suicidal ideation and self injury. Therefore it places a bit emphasis on being able to tolerate painful emotion.

Around here, DBT is only offered in an intensive day treatment program, or inpatient. :(

But I'm guessing that anywhere, you're more likely to be offered DBT if you have problem with regulating your emotions.

So if you don't have a mood or personality disorder, I'm guessing you're more likely to be offered CBT.

I think that DBT could actually be useful for anyone though.
