I really enjoyed this program. I can say had I not had experience in DBT and in the medical field, I would find it hard to understand the content because of some of the medical terminology used. Other than that, it was well worth it! Not sure if this accreditation is valid in the US.

It is a good match. I have done DBT thrice when I was a patient for my mental illness, it has always fascinated me.

This course is very informative and of a high value and very beneficial to anyone studying psychology . I love how Prof Krishna N Sharma explains everything in detail with examples so his students can understand and grasp the information he is teaching . I am so appreciative , and i am loving this course
By Kah Seng Lee on 5/20/2021
Would have preferred more elaboration on how techniques are done specifically and real life examples of how these issues manifest. very superficial information.

My son has been learning DBT while in a residential facility. It has been such a positive outcome that I want to use DBT when I become a therapist
By Anand Nagaraj Rangaraj on 8/27/2020
The different strategies and skills of DBT + how it is applied and treated for various mental disorders have been very well explained. Techniques such as IMPROVE, ACCEPTS, ABC and DEAR MAN have practical utility in terms of application.

This course is excellent so far! I'm learning a lot & taking notes. It is exactly what I was looking for. Looking forward to the rest.
By Meryl Crane on 6/4/2020
Enjoyed content of course. Was well explained and course flowed well. Did find a number of words were not pronounced correctly. I do realise that it must be difficult to speak in English on psychological topics when it's not your native language.

As an individual who has been diagnosed with BPD I found that the course provides a good explanation of DBT as a treatment for the disorder and of the therapy process structure that will be used with a therapist.
By Mary Whittaker on 5/9/2020
I feel that the information on the slides can be better organized. For me it is a little difficult reading the slides and listening to him speak at the same time. I would suggest using more bullet points on the slides and less long sentences. Additionally I would have liked to have some examples of DBT activities and exercises we could use each disorder we covered.
