Group Therapy

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that can be especially helpful for those who feel isolated or alone in their struggles, as it offers a sense of belonging and community. It can also provide a space for individuals to learn from each other's experiences and gain new perspectives on their own challenges.

DBT is helpful for anyone who wants to learn and use new life skills effectively. It can help you handle stressful situations, gain control over your emotions, live in the moment, and have healthy relationships. This type of treatment will help you learn how to communicate and assert yourself when you need to. It will also help you cope with challenges and day to day stressors. These skills can help anyone who struggles with anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality disorders.

​

DBT skills aim to help enhance your capabilities in day-to-day life. The skills your therapist will teach includes:

  • Mindfulness: This is the practice of being fully aware and focused in the present instead of worrying about the past or future.

  • Distress tolerance: This involves understanding and managing your emotions in difficult or stressful situations without responding with harmful behaviors.

  • Interpersonal effectiveness: This means understanding how to ask for what you want and need and setting boundaries while maintaining respect for yourself and others.

  • Emotion regulation: This means understanding, being more aware of and having more control over your emotions.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is especially effective for people who have difficulty managing and regulating their emotions.

DBT has proven to be effective for treating and managing a wide range of mental health conditions, including:

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)
