DBT Diary Card & Skills Log

About DBT Diary Card & Skills Log

Fill out your diary card in a couple of minutes a day — emotions, urges, target behaviors, and the skills you used — then hand your therapist a clean PDF at your next session. DBT Diary Card keeps the whole thing on your phone, offline, with no account and no subscription.

YOUR DAILY CARD
• Rate emotions and urges on the familiar 0–5 scale
• Log the skills you used and how much they helped (0–7)
• Track your own target behaviors, medication, and a private note
• Add your own emotions, urges, and behaviors — your card, your words

SEE YOUR WEEK
• A color heat view shows your week at a glance
• Spot the hard days and the ones where skills helped
• Swipe between weeks

THERAPIST-READY PDF
• Export any week as a clean, printable PDF
• Share it however you like — the OS share sheet, no in-app email required
• Nothing is uploaded; the file is made on your device

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• 100% offline — works on a plane, in a waiting room, anywhere
• Optional PIN and biometric lock; the diary never shows in the app switcher
• No account. Your entries never leave your phone.
• Export a full JSON backup any time so your history is always yours

ONE-TIME PURCHASE
The free version includes the full daily card, your last 14 days of history, and current-week PDF export. DBT Diary Card Pro is a single one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited history, PDF export for any week, and unlimited custom items.

No subscription. No ads. No account. Ever.

DBT Diary Card is a self-tracking tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and is not a substitute for care from a licensed professional. If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (US) or your local emergency number right away — crisis resources are one tap away inside the app.
