Episode description

Ever find yourself fighting your reality? Pushing back against those lemons life throws at you — both big and small — and getting trapped in a cycle of suffering?  While pain is an inevitable part of life, suffering does not have to be. Join clinicians at Behavioral Psych Studio as we explore Radical Acceptance, a DBT distress tolerance skill that can be applied to any lemon that life throws at you: whether that's an overflowing toilet, a global pandemic, or a sudden change in plans. Acceptance is not approval, and it is often the birthplace of relief and change.
