Title: What does DBT consist of?

What does DBT consist of? I mean dialectical behavioral therapy, what if we apply its principles with our partner whether or not he is in treatment because one thing is for him to go one hour with a professional but if we apply that 24 hours 7 days a week for but if we are not professionals we would achieve much more.
Wouldn't it be better to do that than to cry our sorrows?

a lot of the skills and tools derived here are dbt skills...that has to do with supporting our partners, but also coping, for us.

so, sure, you want as much cutting edge information as you can when it comes to how to support your partner and cope. thats not necessarily the same thing as being a stand in therapist to your loved one, if that is what you mean.
