5-day Foundational training

The 5-day Foundational training DBT of Dialexis is a traning for individuals who want to perform DBT and are willing to to join an existing and weekly active DBT consultation team. The health professionals who register for this training are already acquainted with the method via the DBT manual for borderline personality disorders, the DBT skills training manual, or via a 1-day or 3-day Introduction course.

In other words, we focus individuals who have made an considered choice to perform DBT.

All health professionals, who meet every week to support each other in carrying out DBT. There are DBT teams that are united across departments or organizations to find that support from each other. Individual participants who are members of an existing DBT team are referred to the 5-day foundational training, a training which we organize in collaboration with RINO Utrecht (in Dutch).

All health professionals who can take on a role as individual therapist or skills trainer are welcome. In the Netherlands and Belgium, DBT is usually implemented in multidisciplinary teams, in which different basic disciplines and educations are represented. To participate in the 5-day Foundational training, participants posses basic knowledge of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Furthermore, this offer is high in demand. We rely on the health professionals to have decided for themselves that they are able and willing to devote time and energy to implement DBT.

During the training week, consisting of five one-day meetings, the competences for implementing DBT will be practiced. The method emphasis on presentation, demonstration and role play. After this week, the participants can put into practice what they have learned and practiced within their consultation team.

Following this 5-day Foundational Training, the 6-day Follow-up Basic training can be followed later on, to be trained in the implementation of the DGT program and in preparation for any DBT certification. If the participant wants to set up a new DBT program, it is advised to follow the 10-day Intensive Training with two colleagues.
