DBT Groups

In order to retrain the brain and learn new thinking and behavior patterns, research has shown that DBT is most effective when clients attend a DBT Skills Group, attend individual therapy, and reach out for coaching when needed before going to a self-harm behavior.

They may appear highly capable on the outside but feel lonely, disconnected, anxious, or overly self-critical. The group helps participants become more flexible, express emotions more openly, improve social connection, and respond more adaptively to change and uncertainty.

DBT skills groups are a good fit for someone who struggles with intense emotions, impulsive reactions, relationship conflict, or difficulty coping with stress. It can also help people who tend to shut down, avoid problems, or rely on unhealthy coping behaviors when overwhelmed. Participants learn new coping skills in a structured group setting. The groups can benefit people with many different diagnoses, as well as those who simply want better tools for managing emotions and relationships.

DBT Advanced Group

A DBT Advanced Group is designed for people who have already completed a foundational DBT skills group and want continued support applying those skills to real-life challenges. It is especially helpful for individuals who understand the core skills but want more practice with complex emotions, relationships, setbacks, and long-term behavior change. Participants should be ready for deeper discussion, greater accountability, and more advanced problem-solving in a structured group setting
