Bellefaire JCB, a children's behavioral health agency, is expanding its use of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), a specialized form of cognitive behavioral therapy. They are training their clinicians and Mandel School student interns in DBT, aiming to increase the number of qualified DBT therapists and improve outcomes for youth and families. Bellefaire is pursuing DBT certification, which would make them the first certified DBT program in Ohio and only the second for adolescents in the country. Since implementing DBT in 2019, Bellefaire has observed positive changes, including a significant reduction in the need for physical restraints and shorter lengths of stay for their residential clients.
Bellefaire's commitment to DBT is driven by strong evidence. Research consistently demonstrates DBT's effectiveness in reducing suicidal behavior, hospitalization rates, and symptoms of depression. Studies have shown significant symptom reduction in individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder, with many no longer meeting the diagnostic criteria after treatment. Grant funding is crucial to support DBT training and allow Bellefaire to rigorously evaluate the impact of intensive DBT training on clinical outcomes. By expanding access to high-quality DBT training, Bellefaire aims to significantly improve the mental health and well-being of children and families in their community.
