Middle School DBT Multifamily Skills Group
This skills-based group is for middle school youth with difficulty regulating mood and behaviors and/or related relationship challenges. Parents and teens will be taught a structured Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) curriculum that will offer skills for distress tolerance, mindfulness, emotion regulation and effective communication. Parent involvement both supports teens in using skills and offers parents skills they can apply to their own lives.
