DBT Support Hub provides peer-led, educational tools only. We are not responsible for any direct or indirect consequences arising from your use of our chatbot, downloads, or site content. Users should consult a qualified health provider for clinical advice or crisis support.
We make no guarantees about data accuracy or service reliability and are not liable for third-party data breaches involving Wix, Chatbase, or email providers.
