One of the four components of comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is telephone coaching. As DBT formally incorporates intersession contact, it is essential to understand this therapeutic tool's protocol, utility, and function. This program orients participants to this unique aspect of DBT and utilizes role-play to demonstrate clinical examples. While patients do not have to be in crisis to use coaching, there are times that patients may need coaching during an ongoing crisis. Therefore, DBT providers are educated on how to handle a crisis call.

Another unique aspect of DBT is the consultation team. The consultation team is the backbone of DBT, providing emotional and technical support for DBT therapists. In addition, the consultation team makes therapists more skillful in delivering DBT, like how the skills group makes patients more skillful. This program discusses a consultation team's agenda, common problems, agreements, and solutions for healthy teams.
