Our DBT Teen offering is a structured, skills-based DBT program designed to support adolescents and their caregivers in building effective tools for emotion regulation, communication, and managing distress. Each week, teens attend a DBT skills group alongside their caregiver, meet individually with a DBT therapist, and participate in a DBT based family session to strengthen skill use at home. The program emphasizes collaboration with existing outpatient providers and is ideal for teens needing more support than traditional therapy alone. While enrolled, both teens and caregivers have access to DBT phone coaching for reinforcement of skills in real life situations.

Our two social skills group are for Younger Kids and Teenagers who are struggling at school, with peers, and at home. Children in our group try to make and keep friends; however, their negative thinking and low self esteem may get in the way. Social skills deficits do not improve over time on their own and are a risk factor in adulthood. We help children make friends through practice and feedback in the group situation. Having a large practice, we can create groups that will help each child derive maximum benefit.
