A legacy of treating learning difficulties through psychological intervention since Dr. Witmer in 1896
DBT KOREAㅣEducational Philosophy
2006년 시애틀에서 마샤 리네한 박사는
저에게 왜 DBT 치료와 교육을 한국에서 시작하려고 하는지
굳고 진지한 표정으로 물으셨습니다.
저의 진심을 직면시키는 선사의 엄중한 질문이었습니다.
지금도 그 분의 마음을 꿰뚫는 눈빛과 질문은,
제 마음을 마인드풀하고 투명하게 합니다.
한국에서도 미국과 같은 높은 수준의 DBT 치료를 통해 고통속에 있는 분들에게 새로운 삶의 희망을 주는 것. 그리고 이를 위해 인간애와 진정성을 겸비한 윤리적 DBT 치료전문가를 양성하는 것.
이 두가지 마음의 소원을 말씀드렸습니다. 투명하고 마인드풀한 마음에 대한 응답으로, 리네한 박사는 서울에 직접 방문하여 DBT Korea의 미션을 지원하고 한국의 전문가들을 교육하게 됩니다.
