DBT skills classes have been shown to be effective for people who have challenges regulating emotions, managing stress, are struggling in relationships, or feel that their moods and emotions are in control of their life. DBT skills are an adjunct to individual therapy.

Everyone will need to purchase the DBT Skills Training Handouts and Worksheets for their use during class.
