Our DBT Skills training is designed to help clients reduce their suffering, solve problems, and build the lives they envision. Participants in the DBT Skills training must also attend individual therapy sessions at our clinic or with another provider at least twice a month. This ensures they receive personalized support in applying these skills to their unique circumstances.
DBT Skills training includes four key modules:
Mindfulness SkillsMindfulness Skills enhance your awareness of both your internal experiences and external environment. These skills help you gain better control over your mind, thoughts, and emotions. | Distress Tolerance SkillsDistress Tolerance Skills equip you to handle crises without resorting to behaviors that could worsen the situation.
