    Apologies vs. Accountability

    Ulland and Jo discuss why apologies are often not helpful enough with conflict in relationships. They review what they mean by accountability and how it is different. Examples are given. Accountability has to do with looking for how we may contribute to how we may be perceived by important people in our life.

    What do we mean by Fragilizing?

    Ulland and Jo review the concept of fragilization.  They review how walking on eggshells with family members is generally not helpful, especially when both parties are walking on eggshells around each other.  Individuals in active passivity are more capable than we realize and need space to activate for themselves and build confidence.

    Is it my fault my child suffers?

    Ulland and Jo review how parents can feel defensive in family work as though they are being blamed. They review how DBT is a no blame model and how family dynamics must be addressed. The biosocial theory suggests we learned from environments of origin and behaviors are maintained within current environments.   The idea of individual perception of past events may be more meaningful to relationships than focusing on the correct version "reality.” Individuals may see things differently. It is our individual perception of events, not necessarily the events themselves, that lead to our understanding of relationships and our lived history.

    "DBT is too soft."

    Ulland and Jo address judgments towards DBT they have heard more than once regarding being “too easy” with clients. They discuss how those unfamiliar with acceptance strategies are more likely to misunderstand how acceptance is used to meet clients where they are so that meaningful change can happen.  They review some of the assumptions within DBT that make this possible. Please review the previous episode that reviews specific assumptions for further details. Ulland and Jo realized they had not previously covered ALL the assumptions.

    Assumptions for Therapists and Treatment

    Ulland and Jo finally review the therapist and client assumptions within DBT. These assumptions help clinicians adhere to the principles of DBT. Knowing these leads to understanding interventions and the philosophy of treatment. They also discuss how there are some asymmetries that are protective of the client, as well as the therapist.
