Three Pathways to Credentialing as DBT Practitioners

All Credentialed DBT Practitioners are to meet the Education, Practice, Professional and Philosophical requirements of Credentialing as a DBT Practitioner.
PATHWAY 1: NEW TO DBT

Pathway 1 is for clinicians who have not completed a comprehensive DBT training program. The Institute’s 10-month DBT Comprehensive training program provides clinicians with the training and development to meet the credentialing criteria listed below.
PATHWAY 2: DBT GRADUATE
Completed DBT 4 Day Comprehensive Training
Pathway 2 is for clinicians who have completed a 4-day training in DBT online or in-person or part of an intensively trained DBT team. Our online credentialing program supports clinicians implementing a DBT or DBT informed approach over a minimum of one cycle to highlight their knowledge of DBT
PATHWAY 3: SELF-PACED
Clinicians with 5+ years of DBT Experience
Pathway 3 is for clinicians who have over five year’s clinical experience in the delivery of DBT and DBT informed approaches. Credentialing on option 3 requires clinicians to complete self-paced tasks to articulate their knowledge and application of a DBT informed approach.
