About This Test
Reflect on how you handle intense emotions and whether DBT-informed skills are part of how you stay grounded.
This self-assessment explores how DBT-aligned skills show up in your daily life. You will rate statements from Never to Always, covering mindfulness practice, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotional regulation strategies. There are no correct answers - only honest ones.
Your ability to handle intense emotions using DBT skills is tiered as follows: Minimal suggests rare use of grounding techniques, while Mild indicates an emerging application providing intermittent stability. Moderate implies frequent, effective use of DBT strategies to maintain emotional balance. High reflects a robust, natural incorporation of DBT methods for managing emotional fluctuations.
You do not need to have been in DBT therapy for this assessment to be useful. Many people develop these skills naturally or through self-help. Answer honestly about how you currently manage difficult emotions and situations.
