Our Story
Our Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Groups
DBT Skills Group
At the core of DBT, the standard skills group guides participants through the four modules: Mindfulness, Interpersonal Effectiveness, Emotional Regulation and Distress Tolerance. The group is taught in a classroom format following a series of lesson plans, with homework, in-group assignments and review.
Young Adult DBT Group
Similar to our standard skills group, this popular program is designed for young adults, ages 18-25 who are launching into independence. DBT skills are enhanced with an interactive approach using technology, art and other expressive therapies. Transitional topics include career planning, relationships and managing the responsibilities of adulthood.
Advanced DBT
Graduates of our DBT programs often wish to continue building and enhancing the skills they developed in Skills Group. Advanced DBT offers our clients continued support and education as their focus begins to shift toward a healthy and balanced life. Group members participate in practical exercises and activities that allow them to apply their knowledge base in an experiential way.
DBTeen
Our DBTeen program offers the combination of DBT skills and inquiry learning needed to keep teens inspired. We encourage our students to do more than learn skills - we want them to LIVE them!! Our program accommodates school schedules and includes a parent group.
DBT Inspired Youth Groups
All children can benefit greatly from learning the core DBT skills. DBTween (ages 10-13) and Wise-Up (ages 7-9) present Mindfulness, Interpersonal Effectiveness, Emotional Regulation and Distress Tolerance skills in a kid-friendly package that promotes creativity and engages the wise mind.
