Group therapy teaching behavioral and emotional management techniques specifically designed to reduce stress.
DBT Skills Group is a form of group therapy that leans more towards a classroom-like arrangement, where members of the group are taught about the skill being tackled. Participants can also engage, at their own preference, and share their experiences and approaches in situations related to the skill they’re learning about, giving them a chance to also learn from each other.
At the end of each class, everyone gets assigned tasks that will help them practice the skill before the next session.
