What DBT skill do you use when your emotion fits the facts? One option is to work on changing the facts. The skill of Problem Solving offers a structured framework to help you change situations that cause painful emotions.   Problem Solving begins, like many of the Emotion Regulation skills in DBT, by naming your emotion. Next, identify your goal in solving the problem and come up with a solution to meet your goal. Break the solution down into small steps. Finally, take action.   Check in with your Wise Mind when using this skill, because Emotion Mind may distort facts or obscure solutions. Practicing this skill can feel like a lot! This episode walks you through each part of this multi-layered skill.   For full show notes, visit our website: <a href= "https://bayareadbtcc.com/podcast"> https://bayareadbtcc.com/podcast</a> DBT Skills Discussed <ul style= "margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding-inline-start: 48px;"> <li dir="ltr" style= "list-style-type: disc; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" aria-level="1"> <a style="text-decoration: none;" href= "https://bayareadbtcc.com/03-the-what-skills-of-mindfulness/"> The “What” Skills of Mindfulness</a> </li> <li dir="ltr" style= "list-style-type: disc; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" aria-level="1"> <a style="text-decoration: none;" href= "https://bayareadbtcc.com/check-the-facts/"> Check the Facts</a> </li> <li dir="ltr" style= "list-style-type: disc; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" aria-level="1"> <a style="text-decoration: none;" href= "https://bayareadbtcc.com/opposite-action/"> Opposite Action</a> </li> </ul> Resources <ul style= "margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding-inline-start: 48px;"> <li dir="ltr" style= "list-style-type: disc; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;" aria-level="1"> <a style="text-decoration: none;" href= "https://www.amazon.com/Skills-Training-Handouts-Worksheets-Second/dp/1572307811"> DBT Skills Handouts and Worksheets</a> </li> </ul> Ask us a Question We’d love to hear from you!
