i am of the opinion that both cbt and dbt are useful therapeutic modalities when paired with the consideration of the patient's cultural and historical context. i think that one without the other may not be as effective much in the vein as @grit states where cbt is focused upon a more logical aspect and dbt is more focused upon the emotional aspect.
when i was much younger i was very much a typical borderline personality and you can still spy some traits from time to time. i was under the age of eighteen so did not receive a diagnosis but i am certain those traits exist, and i have practiced dbt exercises for years that have helped me to separate: myself, other people, boundaries between myself and other people, my emotions/experiences versus other people's emotional experiences and feelings versus facts.
it is very effective however my traumatic processing was not addressed. i am hoping that the exposure therapy/cbt side of things will assist with this.
