Among those who are involved in DBT therapy or dedicated to the field of mental health, there are individuals who have already engaged deeply in spiritual practice, as well as those who are newly embarking on this path. Even scholars who resonate with Marsha Linehan and her philosophy are engaging in profound spiritual practice within their respective religious institutions.

Changing Patterns of Suicide Behaviors in Children and Adolescents: A Study on Racial Differences and Risk Factors

Mirin Yang, MA

Through research on suicide behaviors among young children and minority groups, more policies, support systems, and protective measures can be developed. This will also lead to an increase in researchers dedicated to studying this issue. We hope that genuine concern and collaboration towards those living as minorities in our society will continue to grow.

Learning to love myself

I had doubted the purpose of life when I had to tolerate the painful difficulties, although I understood that life cannot be always without obstacles.

Palm the Present Moment

The DBT Skills Training Group practiced mindfulness by palming the present moment and increasing awareness of the current moment.

DBT Institue of Korea l Mission

In 2006, Dr. Marsha Linehan in Seattle asked me
with a firm and serious expression
why I wanted to start DBT and education in Korea.

It was a solemn question that confronted the sincerity within me.

Even now, that penetrating gaze and question from her
continue to keep my mind mindful and transparent.

In Korea, providing people in pain with new hope for life through high-quality DBT, similar to that in the United States.

And in order to do this, nurturing ethical DBT experts equipped with compassion and authenticity.

I conveyed these two heartfelt wishes.
In response to the transparent and mindful intention,
Dr. Linehan visited Seoul in person to support
the mission of DBT KOREA and to educate professionals in Korea.

Subsequently, with the support of the expert team in Seattle and Dr. Linehan’s visit to Seoul,
manual translation work for DBT KOREA, DBT classes for experts, and necessary tasks in Korea such as DBT for Koreans and English-speaking clients have been quietly carried out.

The DBT Institute of Korea and I share the philosophy and mission of Dr. Marsha Linehan,
and we are always open to professionals
who want to dedicate themselves to opening their hearts to reduce human suffering and pain.

청소년을 위한 DBT: 질 라수스 & 알렉 밀러 박사의 글 – 영어 서문

We first met Dr. Linehan at a dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) intensive training In Seattle, Washington. Her revolutionary addition of constructs such as mindfulness and acceptance into the cognitive-behavioral therapy model deeply resonated with us regarding the adolescent population we worked with at Montefiore Medical Center, Bronx New York.

Yong Cho, Ph.D.ㅣDBT Institute of Korea

Dr. Cho, the path he walk, is the path for pain and suffering; the DBT and Marsha Linehan’s philosophy, he believed, are the non-detachable companion of his walk to save people from their suffering.

Dr. Cho has always been open-minded. DBT Center of Korea welcome anyone who approaches us with mindful and scientific state of mind.
