Adolescent DBT Program

We specialize in providing a comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) program for adolescents and young adults. Honoring the developmental stage of adolescence, we respectfully work as a team with each client to achieve their personal goals through collaborative discussions, patience and skill development. Through the DBT model, we strive to create a patient, supportive and playful environment so teens can be honest with their challenges and take steps towards more effective behaviors.

Clients learn skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness in order to build a life worth living.

Adolescent clients are thoughtfully assessed and placed in the most appropriate DBT skills training group, considering their age, maturity level, challenges and skill need.
