Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based approach that has gained popularity in recent years due to its effectiveness and broad application.

This group aims to integrate DBT techniques with creative approaches to help teens express themselves & mindfully cope with everyday stressors.

Goals and key focuses of the group:

• Increase effective communication skills
