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.

Evoke Psychology's Multi-Family DBT Skills Group for Adolescents is a supportive, skills-based group where teens and their caregivers learn DBT skills together. The group focuses on practical tools to help manage big emotions, handle stress, improve communication, and navigate relationships more effectively. By learning the same skills side by side, families build a shared language and a better understanding of one another. The goal is not perfection, but progress—helping teens feel more capable and helping families feel more connected, supported, and confident in getting through tough moments together.
I have treated children, teens, adults and elderly adults.
