Therapy-Informed Skills Groups

Besides the individual, couples, and family therapy formats, we also offer a number of groups for adults and adolescents. Group therapy provides a unique opportunity to understand one’s current circumstances in the context of others who might be experiencing similar situations. Currently available groups include:

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-Informed Group for Adults
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-Informed Group for Adolescents

Frequently asked questions about the groups are provided below. For additional information please contact us.

Summer 2024 Virtual Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-Informed Skills Group for Adults & Adolescents

The PSC is currently offering two virtual (via Zoom) Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)-informed Skills Groups: one for adults, and one for adolescents ages 13-17. Co-led by two clinicians, the DBT Skills Groups are primarily didactic in nature and focus on teaching skills to manage overwhelming emotions. The groups may be helpful for adults and adolescents who have a hard time navigating interpersonal situations, find it challenging to handle distressing emotions effectively, or often feel overwhelmed. This group also incorporates mindfulness approaches.
