I was referred to the DBT service after an inpatient admission.
I have a diagnosis or recurrent depression. The reason I was referred was because my self-harm was severe and I had attempted suicide, which had led to teh admission in the first place. I only did 6 months as I already had a psychologist and needed to learn new skills to stop depression becoming unbearable when I was discussing my past with my therapist.
You should ask about the diagnosis; you have a right to know.
