This group involves adolescences and a support person (often someone in the caregiving role). It is 24 weeks long and goes through the comprehensive DBT skills. This is not group therapy! It's more of a class structure with the DBT therapist teaching the group how to use a skill and this being assigned for practice over the week. The goal is to help you with new strategies and behaviours to tolerate distress, regulate painful and intense emotions, increase awareness of thoughts and emotions, and to maintain and improve relationships.
