DBT Give Skill Worksheet Overview
The GIVE skill from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) helps you keep a relationship positive. When your primary focus in an interpersonal situation is how the other person feels about you – whether or not you get what you want – being gentle, acting interested, validating, and using an easy manner can help.
In this worksheet, we’ll review each letter of the GVE skill and provide prompts so you can use the skill to prepare for a difficult conversation.
