Safety First
In DBT, treatment interventions are prioritized based on the severity of the client’s behaviors and their presentation. The first priority is to address behaviors that pose a risk to a client’s safety, such as suicidal ideation, self-harm, or major substance use events. Life-threatening issues always take precedence.
