When facing anxiety or depression, choosing the right therapy can feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are two widely used, evidence-based treatments. While they share common ground, each offers a distinct approach to understanding and managing emotional distress.
Understanding their differences—and when one might be more effective than the other—can help individuals make informed choices based on their unique needs, symptoms, and treatment goals.
