An 8 week program for young people aged 14 – 18 years who are experiencing difficulties managing their emotions and behaviour.
Are you struggling to manage your emotions?
Do you have feelings of emptiness?
Are you struggling with distressing feelings and thougths?
This 8 week program is designed for teens, 14 – 18 years old who experience significant problems managing their emotions, thoughts and behaviours. The aim is to give you a taste of the group experience and an opportunity to learn and practice useful life skills for handling emotionally charged difficulties.
Teens participating in this program will get a taste of all Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills:
- Mindfulness
- Distress Tolerance
- Emotion Regulation
- Interpersonal Effectiveness
- Walking the Middle Path
You will have the opportunity to learn strategies for improving emotional regulation, impulsivity and relationships.
Each 2 hour session will consist of skills teaching and real accountability to practice between sessions.
Ideally this program is best suited to those with a parent/caregiver attending the DBT Family and Friends Support Group which will be running in conjunction with this program.
