DBT Skills Group
Our online 12-week DBT skills groups are designed to provide you with
effective, practical coping strategies to help you manage emotional and interpersonal difficulties. Open to adults (18+) and adolescents (14-17) in
Ontario, Alberta and Nova Scotia with new groups starting monthly.
What coping skills will I learn?
Mindfulness
Skills that enhance present moment focus, reduce judgmental thoughts, increase self-compassion and create greater discernment when making decisions.
Distress
Tolerance
Skills that help to reduce intense emotions and accept the reality during distressing moments, so that you can get through overwhelming situations by tolerating the distress rather than avoiding it.
Emotion
Regulation
Skills that increase your capacity to acknowledge and accept your emotions, reduce unpleasant emotions (i.e. anxiety, anger, shame) and increase the frequency of pleasant ones.
Interpersonal Effectiveness
Skills that improve relationships, communication and interactions with others, while enhancing your ability to navigate challenging interpersonal situations.
