DBT Skills Training for Health Professionals
~Building a self-care village in a workaholic world~
For mental health professionals we offer a DBT Skills Training Group that combines CPD with experiential learning. This is a unique opportunity to learn DBT Skills in a safe collegial environment.
​
This program is designed to help mental health professionals to develop effective self-care skills necessary for the prevention of burn out. We believe that self-care improves both practitioner health and patient outcome. The program also aids in the development of clinical skills and gives a deeper understanding of the dialectical philosophy of DBT.
​
Though DBT was originally developed for the treatment of chronically suicidal patients, DBT Skills are now used not only in clinical settings for a number of clinical conditions, but in schools, colleges, corporations and other organisational settings for the purpose of improvement of the emotional environment, team morale and individual wellbeing.
​
How does the program work?
We follow the standard DBT protocol, which combines lectures, discussion and practice of specific skills that are essential for effective self-care. The program runs in three 8-week modules:
• Mindfulness & Distress Tolerance
• Mindfulness & Emotional Regulation, and
• Mindfulness & Interpersonal Effectiveness
​
The program runs in small groups to ensure personal attention for each participant. New participants can join at the beginning of each module.
​
​
THIS PROGRAM IS TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE.
