Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, is an evidence-based form of psychotherapy created by Dr. Marsha Linehan to treat people struggling with emotional regulation. It was first designed for treating suicidal individuals and patients with borderline personality disorder to help them learn tools that will allow for more effective coping skills. More recently, it has also been endorsed by the National Institute of Mental Health as an evidence-based treatment for depression in adults.

Emotional Intelligence is an essential skill that business owners and managers use to deal with today's volatile and fast-moving environment. It refers to identifying, evaluating, and managing one's emotions, which is necessary for leadership and decision-making.

The problem with this topic is that it can be overwhelming and confusing. People confuse emotional Intelligence with IQ (Intelligence Quotient) or EQ (Emotional Quotient; Emotional Intelligence Quotient).

DBT is not considered a specific goal-driven endpoint of therapy but rather a process that continues even after formal psychotherapy has ended. DBT teaches skills to its patients that can be applied to any situation in their lives. Because of this principle, therapy need not always strictly focus on the originating issue. It can encompass many aspects of an individual's life and interactions with others. Integrative and holistic practices such as yoga and meditation are central to DBT; mindfulness is common in both these activities.


While Emotional Intelligence is not easily achieved, it can be developed with time. Emotional Intelligence is what makes people successful in their careers and life.
