DBT in Action (April/May 2021)

Description

Three training sessions as follows:

Session 1- 23 April : Overview & Mindfulness
Session 2 - 30 April : Distress Tolerance & Emotional Regulation
Session 3 - 7 May : Interpersonal Effectiveness & Setting up /enhancing DBT skills group

They are designed to give a brief overview of the theory underpinning DBT and to provide ideas for practical implementation of the DBT skills. They are introductory in nature and would be best suited for those starting to deliver DBT skills groups or facilitate DBT-informed individual therapy. The workshops will give a broad overview of each DBT skills module, and also teach several specific skills from each module in detail. The training is designed as a 3-part series with each session building on the previous ones (therefore attendance in all three parts is essential).

The training will be interactive, involving didactic learning augmented with role play, discussion and exercises.

This workshop will be delivered online via zoom. A zoom link will be sent a few days before the workshop.
