Inside a Real DBT Therapy Session - How We Can Use Our Emotions as Information with Tifany Barlow

In this powerful episode, Makayla Hess sits down with Tiffany Barlow, a licensed clinical social worker at Great Salt Lake Wellness in St. George, to explore how Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) can help us make real, lasting change. Tiffany shares her approach to therapy — blending emotional validation with direct, root-focused work — and walks us through a real-time Behavioral Chain Analysis (BCA) to show how even habits like staying up too late are deeply connected to our emotional responses. We dive into emotion regulation, trauma-informed care, and how DBT gives us tools to understand our emotions not as problems, but as messages. Whether you're a therapist, a client, or just curious about how to better cope and connect with yourself, this conversation is filled with insight, compassion, and practical tools you can use right away. Topics covered: What DBT actually is and why it works How emotions offer valuable information Using Behavioral Chain Analysis (BCA) in everyday life How trauma and EMDR influence emotional patterns The difference between distraction and healing 🎧 Tune in, learn to work with your emotions — not against them.
