DBT Skills Group (In Person)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps individuals live more in the moment, better manage intense emotions, reduce impulsive behavior, and improve their relationships. In this group, we will learn skills from the modules of DBT: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Participants commit to joining eight weeks at a time and the full program is 24 weeks. The group is held in person in our Ashburn office on Mondays from 12:00pm-1:30pm. Our next module (Emotion Regulation) will start on October 28th.
