“It is difficult to manage your emotions when you do not understand
how emotions work. Knowledge is power.” - Dr. Marsha Linehan

Do you want to learn how to better manage your... Changing Emotional Responses? Overwhelming Feelings? Impulse to self-harm? Attention and Focus? Staying in the Present, Mindfulness? Negative Judgments about Self and Others? Reduce Vulnerability to Emotion Mind? If you responded "YES" to three or more of these questions, you will receive great value from this program.

The Adolescent DBT Skills Training group is for teens who would like to learn how to cope more effectively with intense emotions, problematic thoughts or behaviors (i.e. negative thinking, self-harm, substance use, suicidal thinking), and/or relationship struggles.
