Adult DBT Skills Group

Our Adult DBT Skills Group is a psychoeducational group aimed at helping you learn the essential skills for staying safe, managing difficult or overwhelming emotions, and build meaningful and long-lasting relationships. The format is more "class" than "group": let's focus on learning and practicing the practical skills to help you achieve your goals!

What is DBT?

Mindfulness

Mindfulness skills are geared toward building one thing: awareness. In this module, we focus on tools to help us pause, get our of our emotion mind, and act effectively. These skills are the sturdy foundation we'll build everything else upon!

Distress Tolerance

Sometimes, we can't immediately solve the problems that cause us pain. Our distress tolerance skills are all about surviving crisis situations safely and effectively. We all have unhelpful or unhealthy coping mechanisms. In this module, we'll learn useful alternatives.

Emotion Regulation

Our emotions serve an important purpose: they motivate us towards survival. Sometimes our emotions can cause us unnecessary suffering. In this module, we'll learn how to change and reduce the intensity of painful emotions.

Interpersonal Effectiveness

We're all wired for human connection. In this module, we'll learn skills useful to creating and strengthening meaningful relationships to the friends and family that are most important to us.

Community

Sometimes, it can feel like we're the only ones struggling. Our DBT group offers an opportunity to connect to other parents and teens wrestling with some of the same challenges as you. There is strength in community.
