Résumé : | Autistic people may experience high emotion and sensory sensitivities and a slow return to baseline emotional state. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) was developed to address reactivity, impulsivity, and mood dysregulation in individuals with mood and personality disorders. DBT may be therapeutically beneficial to autistic individuals struggling with these or similar emotional and sensory challenges. This article is a synthesis of the first author's experiences of DBT as an autistic person and professional insights from all authors. We provide an overview of the development of DBT, its foundational components, and adaptations. Using this basis, the first author describes the benefits DBT has had, the modifications that have helped him, and how those modifications may enhance DBT for autistic people. Modifications include visuals, graphics, and a gaming format that target the client's personal interests. The essence of these alterations is to transform life skills and DBT skills into something meaningful and functional. Receptivity of the therapist to the modifications and neurodivergent problem solving may be foundational to therapeutic success. Client-initiated contributions in collaborative therapy may improve autistic participants' understanding, validation, and adherence with DBT. The authors suggest expanding work on DBT modifications for autism in the areas of daily self-monitoring, assessing for preferred visual and gaming formats, and utilizing personal interests.
