Adult- DBT

This group will focus on learning and then refining skills leading to more positive behavioral, emotional, and thinking patterns. We will explore techniques to calm and center thinking. These skills will then be applied to centering thinking while in crisis with the final goal of reducing the level of distress in our lives.

Do you feel that personal chaos, impulsive actions and emotional roller-coasters define your life? Are you interested in learning how cope more effectively with life crises and better regulate your emotions?

We are offering a new group that is designed to address:
# crisis tolerance
# emotional regulation
# interpersonal effectiveness.

The group will run in three 8-week segments with each segment focused on a particular skill, "distress tolerance", "emotion regulation", and "interpersonal effectiveness".

Please note that while this group is focused on understanding behavior and how to make change it is not a psychodynamic group, but rather a "skills training" group. In other words, it will more resemble attending a course than being in therapy. In fact, you are strongly encouraged to remain in individual therapy during this group.
