About the Course
Our DBT Intensive learning pathway has been designed specifically for existing clinical teams (teams are groups of four-to-eight providers), all of whom are committed to working together to help each other deliver effective treatment. This comprehensive learning experience equips participant teams with not only the practical knowledge of DBT, but also guidance on how to effectively apply DBT in their respective treatment settings.
DBT team members support one another by motivating each other, and by helping each other be the best DBT therapist possible. Alongside your team, you will hone your clinical performance by learning through didactics, demonstrations of treatment, practice, and recorded discussions of expert DBT therapists that bring DBT theory and strategies to life. You’ll learn how to help clients engage in new behaviors, generate hope and maintain commitment, and troubleshoot and address the problems that may hinder those commitments.
If you and your team are looking to offer this valuable treatment in your respective settings, we can’t wait for you to join us by enrolling in the DBT Intensive program.
