In this presentation, Sarah discusses some of the adaptations she has used while using Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) as a treatment for autistic adolescents with emotion dysregulation.

This presentation can provide information to providers looking to refine their skills for this population, and help loved ones and autistic people learn about how DBT can be a helpful treatment for them.
