DBT Groups for Adults and Teens
The Koch Center offers Dialectical Therapy (DBT) Programs for Adults, Adolescents, and Middle Schoolers. DBT teaches skills that help the individual identify and cope with distressing thoughts and feelings. Often, these feelings have been interfering with the individual's ability to function and enjoy life. Our DBT Skills Groups foster the capacity to experience a full emotional life without becoming overwhelmed or overwhelming others. Skills are practiced using exercises such as completing homework and diary cards and recording thoughts and behaviors. We have evening groups that run throughout the week. Check our website for current schedule.
