Alison Alderdice's Groups
Adult DBT Skills Class
For adults enrolled in our full DBT program this group involves learning skills to cope with life's challenges. In keeping with the research on DBT, we follow Dr. Linehan's training manual and cover skills in mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. While this group is very supportive, it is not a support group and likely differs from prior group therapy experiences that emphasize processing issues collectively. The focus here is on learning and practicing skills to overcome the obstacles that have gotten in the way of building a life worth living.
