For teens who are ready to manage their big emotions and feel empowered to create a happier, healthier life.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, or DBT for short, is an evidence-based treatment method that has been proven to help reduce anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress symptoms, decrease suicidal and self-harming thoughts and behaviors, and increase self-worth and self-respect.

Our research-backed DBT Skills curriculum will teach your teen…

  • Mindfulness skills which will help them to calmly identify and accept their thoughts and feelings without judgement or escalation.

  • Distress tolerance skills to help them get through difficult situations without turning to coping mechanisms that may be unhelpful or even self-destructive.

  • Emotion regulation skills to help manage their big emotions and cope with their negative feelings before they become overwhelming or out of control.

  • Interpersonal effectiveness skills which will help them to better relate to others, form meaningful connections, and effectively advocate for their own needs.

Joining a DBT Skills Group will help your teen to feel validated, empowered, and resilient.
