Adult DBT Skills Group as Add-On Services
We offer DBT Skills Group for adults currently participating in therapy outside of our office, particularly for those not in comprehensive DBT. Research indicates that the DBT skills alone can assist a client in moving towards more effective behavior and reduce anxiety and depression over time. We invite you to join us to see if the DBT skills can help you enhance movement in your current treatment. *Participants will be asked to provide authorization for their current treatment provider and a consultation with both client and current therapist is required before acceptance to the group. Multiple days/times available.
