Clarity Counseling, LLC's Groups

14-Week DBT Skills Group(s)

These 14 week DBT Skills groups run every 15 weeks and meets over Zoom. The groups are separated according to age and we currently have 2 teen groups and 2 adult groups running. These groups are comprehensive skills group that will go over the 4 modules of DBT. Each group member will be required to work with a primary therapist and provide authorization for the group leader to provide weekly updates. Members will be asked to complete diary cards weekly as well as behavioral chains, and will be filling their "tool box" with tools throughout the group.

More about this group

Eating Disorder Recovery Process Group

This group is intended for individuals who are in recovery from an eating disorder and are needing a safe space to process among peers. It is most appropriate for people stepping down from higher levels of care to aid in the transition or those who are at the out patient level of care and would benefit with added support. This group is structured as a safe space to check-in and share about thoughts, feelings and behavior urges as well as to give and receive feedback on your recovery journey.

More about this group

DBT Focus Group

The purpose of this group is to provide a safe space to process events during the week where we could have used skills to prevent problem behaviors or we acted on action urges. The group will provide feedback to other members on how they could have used skills and more practical uses for the skills. Group members must have previously learned DBT skills either from the DBT Skills Group at Clarity or at another treatment center/provider. Please call or email to sign up for this ongoing group.
