In Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), the skill "Values" focuses on helping individuals identify and connect with what truly matters to them in life. It’s a key component of building a meaningful and fulfilling life, particularly for those struggling with emotional regulation and selfdestructive behaviors. Here’s a closer look at this important skill:

Values are the guiding principles and core beliefs that influence how we live our lives and make decisions. They reflect what is most important to us and give our actions purpose and direction. Values are often tied to our sense of identity and can provide motivation and meaning.

In summary, focusing on values in DBT helps individuals live a life that feels authentic and meaningful. It can enhance motivation, guide decisionmaking, and improve emotional resilience by aligning actions with what truly matters.
