Validation in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) means acknowledging another person’s thoughts, emotions, and experiences. There are six levels of validation, and the purpose of these different levels is to allow others to feel understood no matter what they’re going through or how they present themselves. The DBT 6 Levels of Validation handout starts by explaining the purpose of the handout. It features a pyramid representing each level and suggests how to put each level into practice. For example, the lowest level, which is to “Show Interest and Be Present” suggests practicing active listening when interacting with others. Using this handout helps kids and teens improve their interpersonal interactions by showing that they are accepting and listening non-judgmentally. Caring adults can model validation by giving their undivided attention when their child communicates their concerns in school and other areas of their lives. This handout pairs well with our 6 Levels Of Validation Worksheet, which provides an opportunity to practice each of the 6 levels of validation techniques. *This item is an instant digital download.

The SUDs Rating Scale, or Subjective Units of Distress Scale is a self-assessment tool widely used in therapy. It is designed for clients to subjectively rate the intensity of their emotional states, such as anxiety, anger, agitation, stress, and other painful feelings. The Subjective Units Of Distress Scale (SUDS) handout asks clients to reflect on their current emotional state and choose a number from the scale ranging from 0 to 10. A higher number indicates increased distress while a lower number indicates minimal distress. This version of the SUDS has a column that displays possible DBT distress tolerance skills that can be used at each level of distress. Based on the client’s rating, they can be guided to use a specific distress tolerance skill. For kids and teens, this handout can be an effective tool for clearly communicating their distress levels to caring adults. Feel free to incorporate this in various settings, such as during therapy sessions, group counseling in schools, or support groups. Regardless of the environment, remember to communicate respect and understanding of the child’s personal experiences. This handout pairs well with our Subjective Units Of Distress Scale Worksheet, which allows individuals to apply the scale to their own personal experience. *This item is an instant digital download.
