Emotion Regulation Group
Now taking referrals for 2023
Many people struggle to manage emotions – not knowing what they’re feeling, or what to do with emotions that arise – and often turn to problem behaviours in attempts to cope with emotions (e.g. avoiding, lashing out at others, doing things that are self-destructive).
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps people who struggle with emotion dysregulation related to mood and anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and addictions; as well as difficulties with anger, grief, shame, and other painful emotions.
This 12 week-long DBT skills training group will teach participants skills to help:
-
Reduce emotional pain by increasing awareness and acceptance of the present moment
-
Endure intense emotions without making the situation worse
-
Identify, understand, and accept emotions, reduce emotional intensity, and improve problem-solving to promote planful responding rather than impulsive reacting
-
Improve relationships by setting healthier limits, problem-solving, and assertive communication
