Virtual-DBT group- Young Adult
Have you felt discouraged by past treatment results? Felt unable to tolerate intense emotional responses? If so, consider DBT. Uncomfortable with a 'group'? Let's talk because there are options! Dialectical Behavior Therapy is a teachable, learnable & practical approach. DBT places greater emphasis on behavioral interventions than cognitive interventions. It is directive & change oriented. DBT incorporates emotion regulation & reality testing with concepts of distress tolerance, acceptance, & mindfulness. This process involves the Dialectical philosophy in which no position is absolute. The Dialectical philosophy involves the synthesis of opposites, through understanding varying contexts & seeking a workable balance which leads to change.
