DBT Skills Training Group

What is DBT:

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) blends Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy & Mindfulness techniques, offering a powerful framework for managing emotions, fostering healthier relationships, and crafting a fulfilling life.

No diagnosis needed…anyone can benefit!

  • Our group is focused on learning the skills associated with DBT -

    • Emotional Regulation,

    • Mindfulness,

    • Distress Tolerance and

    • Interpersonal Effectiveness

Learning these skills is a great way to supplement your individual therapy or to improve your quality of life. These skills also assist to make decisions in a mindful and considered way, rather than acting on auto-pilot or being subject to emotional reasoning.

The group format enables people to seek validation and support in a non-judgemental and affirming environment. We don’t ask you to share your personal history, just to listen, learn and contribute to discussions as you wish.

Who would benefit:

  • Adults experiencing intense or rapidly changing emotions

  • People who feel overwhelmed by stress or struggle to cope in healthy ways

  • Those with chronic anxiety or low mood

  • Adults with ADHD who want practical tools for focus and emotional regulation

  • People who have relationship difficulties or find communication challenging

  • Individuals recovering from trauma who want to build stability and coping skills

  • Anyone wanting structured, evidence-based skills to improve wellbeing or supplement their individual therapy.
