A practical guide to the DBT skill Check the Facts — for testing whether an emotion fits the situation that produced it. Built on standard Dialectical Behavior Therapy principles, for clinicians teaching the skill and for individuals practising it.

What's Inside

  • Understanding "Check the Facts"
    Why interpretations rather than events drive emotional intensity, and how the skill interrupts the cycle between a distorted appraisal and the response that follows it.
  • Step-by-Step Process
    A structured sequence: identify the prompting event, describe the interpretation, gather the evidence, and consider alternative explanations — arriving at an appraisal that fits the facts.
  • Worked Examples & Worksheets
    Practical examples and reusable worksheets covering both workplace and relationship scenarios, so the skill is practised on real material rather than in the abstract.

Why Therapists Use This Guide

Check the Facts is often taught in a single session and then never practised, because clients leave without a structure to follow. This guide gives them the sequence in writing, which is what turns a skill they have heard of into one they can use.

Key Benefits

  • Test emotional interpretations against evidence rather than intensity
  • Build more accurate appraisals of difficult situations
  • Support clearer decision-making and steadier interpersonal responses

Who Is This For?

Therapists, counsellors and social workers teaching DBT distress tolerance and emotion regulation skills — and individuals working through DBT skills with or without a clinician.
