Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Groups

Tara Arnold, Ph.D., LCSW, Smyrna 30080, 404-964-6629, http://taraarnoldinc.com/ (Ongoing Group)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Training Group is led by Tara Arnold, who has been teaching DBT groups for over ten years. This group teaches the DBT skills of Mindfulness, Interpersonal Effectiveness, Emotional Regulation, Radical Acceptance, & Distress Tolerance to women who struggle with Eating Disorders, Mood Disorders, Substance Abuse, Anxiety Disorders and/or Co-Occurring Disorders. There are groups for adolescents and women. DBT is a great adjunct to individual therapy, and it helps many clients stop unwanted behaviors while getting “unstuck.” I passionately believe in the transformative power of the group and DBT.

Vanessa Hebert, LCSW, Atlanta 30305, 404-816-6262, http://www.vanessahebert.com/ (Ongoing Group)
This DBT group is co-facilitated by two experienced Licensed Clinical Social Workers who utilize the comprehensive therapeutic model designed by Marsha Linehan, Ph.D., that focuses on changing and managing destructive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Clients who benefit from DBT typically struggle with ineffective reactions to stress that are often self-harming or self-defeating, which tend to increase pain and stress. These clients often find that DBT skills are especially useful in changing self-destructive patterns. The goal of DBT Skills training groups is to assist in alleviating suffering so that clients may learn to create lives worth living!

Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Training Group is co-facilitated by two clinical psychologists who strive to provide compassionate, empirically validated treatment to alleviate problems that cause distress in daily living. This group is divided into 3 modules (Interpersonal Effectiveness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation). Mindfulness is incorporated into the beginning of each module. DBT is particularly helpful when solutions to an individual’s difficulties and the achievement of desired goals requires skills not currently in their repertoire. We work to help clients integrate these skills into their life in a personally meaningful way.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Training Group is a group co-facilitated by two broadly trained and experienced clinical psychologists. This group is designed to teach the four DBT skills modules (Core Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness), skills focused on learning how to effectively manage and regulate emotions. An adjunct to individual therapy, this kind of group is helpful to clients who tend to struggle with emotion dysregulation and may engage in behaviors that worsen their difficulties (e.g., substance abuse, eating disorders, trauma, depression, and anxiety).
