These 13 week DBT Skills groups run every 17 weeks and meets over Zoom. The groups are separated according to age and we currently have 2 teen groups and 2 adult groups running. These groups are comprehensive skills group that will go over the 4 modules of DBT. Each group member will be required to work with a primary therapist and provide authorization for the group leader to provide weekly updates. Members will be asked to complete diary cards weekly as well as behavioral chains, and will be filling their "tool box" with tools throughout the group.

The group is energetic, educational, and targets all 4 modules in DBT and will leave clients with a comprehensive binder of all of the skills learned throughout the group. This group will be offered in-person at the Gainesville location and will spend 6 weeks per module and have 1 bi-week prior to starting a new module. Pending the group size, the group could accept new group members at the start of the new module, but this group will max out at 6 members.
