Have you heard about Dialectical Behavioral Therapy?

DBT has been found to be an effective treatment for a variety of mental health conditions including depression and anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, substance issues, eating disorders, self-harm and suicidal ideation, PTSD, as well as ADHD and executive functioning issues.

DBT Skills Training For Adults
DBT recognizes that patient problems are often the result of skill deficits and so increasing individual capabilities through skills training is a major focus of DBT. Lotus Psychotherapy is pleased to offer DBT skills training as part of its group offerings. DBT skills are aimed directly at reducing problems that stem from patterns of instability in emotional regulation, as well as difficulties in impulse control, interpersonal relationships, and self-esteem.
About the Course
This 24-week 90 minute course is for Adults (age 25and up). Each week will focus on teaching and practicing new skills. DBT includes four behavioral skill modules:
Mindfulness: the practice of being fully aware and present in this one moment.
Distress Tolerance: how to tolerate pain in difficult situations.
Interpersonal Effectiveness: how to ask for what you want and say no while maintaining self-respect and your relationships with others.
Emotion Regulation: how to decrease vulnerability to painful emotions and modify emotions that you want to change.
