DBT Skills Group for Individuals

This is a weekly group aimed to help individuals reach their goals through acquisition and strengthening of behavioral skills. Group members learn four broad types of skills to deal more effectively with their emotions. These include: 1) Mindfulness: how to stay present and aware in the current moment; 2) Distress Tolerance: how to tolerate/accept painful experiences without making it worse; 3) Interpersonal Effectiveness: how to ask for what you want and say no to things you don't; and 4) Emotion Regulation: how to change/modulate your emotions. Group entry occurs on a rolling basis.
