About the Linehan Institute

Current Initiatives

DBT in Community is an initiative dedicated to carrying forward the work of Dr. Linehan, rooted in the belief that strong, compassionate, and healthy communities can grow through the practice of DBT skills.

We believe that thriving, joyful lives are possible for everyone, and DBT skills provide a bridge toward that possibility. While not a clinical setting, this is a welcoming space where anyone can come to learn and practice DBT skills, and to find a compassionate, accepting community to walk alongside. At its core, DBT in Community is about empowerment and connection—supporting all who seek to experience life as worth living with greater skill, hope, and compassion.
