Daily Behavior Tracking

http://www.diarycard.net

This app was developed by Dr. Sammy Banawan in Durham, NC. Dr. Banawan maintains a full-time private practice in Durham where he also did his internship and post-doctoral fellowship at the Duke University Medical Center. During his post-doctoral fellowship, he worked directly with Dr. Marsha Linehan and her colleagues in continuing to adapt DBT for a variety of psychological conditions. While this app was developed by a mental health professional, it is not intended to replace a therapist. You will get the most from the app with the aid of a DBT-trained psychotherapist. Remember that if you are actively suicidal or engaging in self-injurious behaviors, you need to be working with a therapist. This application was created in an effort to bring psychotherapy practices up to 21st century standards. As more and more people carry around mini-computers in the form of smartphones, having to use sheets of paper to record something like behaviors or emotions seems a little ridiculous. It was also designed with the utmost in customizability in mind since no two people are working on the same sets of issues or with the same sets of treatment targets. Over years of experience treating patients using Dialectical Behavior Therapy, we started to get a sense of what most people need to track and what types of coaching is useful and that’s where the app starts. As you use it and add more of your own information into it, the app will start to be even more helpful to you.
