SUMMARY:Joaquim Soler – Compassion in DBT
DESCRIPTION:About this webinar\, Joaquim writes: “I don’t know if most people are aware that one process that has been identified as very relevant in the improvement of people who underwent an 8-week mindfulness-based cognitive therapy treatment is self-compassion. What’s surprising is that MBCT does not explicitly include any session\, materials\, or meditations focused on compassion. So\, where does the increase in self-compassion come from? \nProbably because it is implicit\, embedded as a foundational attitude in the instructors’ interactions with participants. I believe something similar happens in DBT. However\, we also know that when compassion is taught explicitly – as in Compassion Focused Therapy – it effects can be even stronger. \nThis is my goal: to expand and make explicit something that is already present in DBT. We already did this with dialectical thinking\, which was once only modeled by therapists but is now an explicit theme in the Middle Path module. Patients can now learn to apply dialectical thinking directly\, rather than simply absorbing it through observation. \nIn addition\, self-criticism and self-invalidation are terms that\, without having the same meaning\, have a lot of overlap. The inclusion of loving-kindness and compassion training in the skills training program for BPD would aim to decrease self-invalidation and achieve an additional skill to acceptance in coping with pain or promoting positive emotions. \nNotice that a wise mind driven action could not be really “wise” without compassion\, and some other skills\, such the encouragement skill or the practice of contribution are also driven by it. Additionally\, in the revised version of skills manual\, loving-kindness meditations have been added in some expanded versions of the mindfulness module. While elements of compassion are already present in DBT many people with BPD struggle with self-compassion. For this reason\, a more explicit and structured focus may be necessary to help them develop this powerful skill\, which could ultimately enhance treatment outcomes.”

SUMMARY:Fragiscos Gonidakis – DBT in Eating Disorders
DESCRIPTION:In his webinar Fragiskos will focus on practical strategies for clinicians. He will explore how to adjust standard DBT protocols when working with clients who present with serious eating disorder symptoms. Session will offer insight into how to meet the needs of this high-risk\, hard-to-treat population using DBT’s flexible\, principle-based approach. \nWhile standard DBT was originally developed for chronic suicidality and BPD\, growing evidence supports its effectiveness for individuals with comorbid eating disorders\, particularly when emotional dysregulation\, impulsivity\, and interpersonal difficulties are central features. These clients often struggle with high ambivalence about change\, intense shame\, and difficulties with body image and identity. Factors that can undermine traditional ED treatments. DBT offers a structured framework to build motivation\, reduce life-threatening behaviors (such as severe restriction or binge-purge cycles)\, and target the emotional and cognitive patterns that maintain disordered eating. \nFragiskos will address how to prioritize treatment targets\, modify skills training to address ED-specific behaviors\, and support clients in tolerating distress without using food-related coping. His experience working at the intersection of BPD and eating disorders makes this a valuable session for clinicians seeking guidance on one of the most challenging dual-diagnosis presentations.
