Types of Validation in DBT: Emotional, Behavioral, and Cognitive Validation

There are three types of validation in DBT: emotional, behavioral, and cognitive. Therapists must consider the timing and context of validations. In this presentation, Dr. Stephanie Vaughn, Psy.D., discusses the use of 3 types of validation in therapy, considering timing, reinforcement, and how to balance validation and change strategies. Here are some highlights we’ve extracted from this video: 1. The 3 types of validation are emotional, behavioral, and cognitive. 2. Don’t use validation immediately following problem behaviors that are maintained by validation. Level up your clinical practice with Psychotherapy Academy!
