Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an effective treatment for improving emotional regulation in adults with ADHD.

  • How DBT teaches skills to improve management of intense emotions, impulsivity, mood swings, stress intolerance, and related behaviors
  • How DBT teaches skills to improve executive functioning
  • How DBT teaches approaches to activate the emotions needed for task initiation and persistence
