Abstract

NICE Clinical Guideline no. 78 recently identified Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) as an appropriate treatment approach for the effective treatment of suicidal behaviours in the context of borderline personality disorder. Uniquely among the cognitive behavioural therapies DBT is a team-based treatment. This paper focuses on the task of selecting and training a team before considering issues in the training and supervision of therapists learning this approach.
