Summary
This study compares face-to-face dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), online DBT, and usual treatment for people with addiction and emotional regulation difficulties. 120 adults will participate, learning skills to better manage emotions and reduce impulsivity. The goal is to see if online DBT can be as effective as in-person sessions, making treatment more accessible.
