Group Description

In this DBT group, you will learn essential skills that will empower you to navigate life's challenges more effectively and improve your overall well-being. DBT combines elements of mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, giving you a comprehensive toolkit for managing daily stressors and difficult emotions. As a participant, you will be guided through the DBT curriculum and provided a space where you can share your in-the-moment experiences, gain insights from others, and receive support throughout your journey of growth and change.

Objectives of the DBT Therapy Group:

- Mindfulness: Cultivate the ability to be present in the moment, non-judgmentally, and develop a greater awareness of thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations.

- Emotion Regulation: Learn strategies to identify, understand, and manage intense emotions effectively, leading to a more balanced emotional life.

- Distress Tolerance: Acquire coping skills to navigate distressing situations and crises without resorting to harmful behaviors or emotional avoidance.

- Interpersonal Effectiveness: Enhance communication and relationship skills, allowing you to assert your needs, set boundaries, and build healthier connections with others.

- Reducing Self-Harm Behaviors: Develop alternative ways to cope with emotional pain and reduce self-destructive behaviors through adaptive coping mechanisms.

- Building Resilience: Strengthen your ability to bounce back from setbacks, building resilience in the face of life's challenges.

- Creating a Life Worth Living: Identify and pursue personal values and goals, fostering a sense of purpose and fulfillment in your life.

- Group Support and Feedback: Benefit from the group dynamic, offering and receiving support, and gaining valuable feedback from others who understand your experiences.- Generalization of Skills: Learn how to apply the skills learned in the therapy group to real-life situations, promoting lasting change and growth.

- Maintenance of Progress: Develop strategies to maintain progress beyond the therapy group, promoting continued personal development and well-being.

Participation in this group requires a commitment to attend regularly and actively engage in the therapeutic process. Confidentiality and respect for others' experiences are essential to create a safe and supportive environment for all members. By working together, we can help you achieve your goals and build a life worth living.

This group is led by Guillermo Palomino, LAC.
