Dialetical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Group

DBT Groups are scheduled periodically as availability and participants are available.  Please reach out to MOHInfo@counselingmail.com for more information and to see if a group is being scheduled. 

Emotional regulation skills are not something people are born with, instead, they are developed out of a shared experience of co-regulation as a child.  Many things can disrupt this process and individuals did not learn the skills and must work to acquire them later in life.  DBT is an evidence-based program proven to help strengthen the ability to be successful with emotional regulation, navigating stressful situations that arise, improving mindfulness, and helping repair interpersonal chaos.  DBT has been effective in treating a variety of diagnosis including: Borderline Personality, PTSD, Substance Use Disorders, Eating Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, and those struggling with self harming behaviors.  

Focus: This group will teach individuals skills to navigate difficult emotions.  Each skills and group is focused on the skills of DBT  mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.  We must have 6 participants minimum.
