“I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand on the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, “Yes!” 

- Oriah Mountain Dreamer

I have facilitated many groups with adolescents over the last seventeen years, both as a teacher and a clinician. Groups provide an opportunity for adolescent clients to experiment by practicing skills in a safe and contained environment.  Group members will be provided with a binder to learn the four DBT Skill Modules. They are also expected to complete homework assignments outside of group and practice these skills in other environments too. 

UPCOMING DBT SKILLS GROUPS

The DBT Skills Group meets for 16 weeks and group members will learn the four different core DBT skill modules. Each week, group members will be given homework assignments, where they can practice these skills with their family and friends. Truly, this therapy group is about developing coping skills; group members must be in their own individual therapy to support them with their process work.
