Group Therapy

Group therapy is an integral part of the DBT treatment model. At the CBRTP, we offer several DBT skills-training groups as a complement to individual therapy. You may see one of our individual therapists, or you could see someone from another practice. Group therapy in the DBT framework is an important adjunct to treatment in which skills for living are taught.  You might think of this more as a  class than as therapy, as you will have a notebook and homework assignments each week.  In addition, you should know that DBT groups are not "support groups" in the traditional sense, and discussion of personal issues is restricted to the skill being taught.
