Learn to get yourself out of repetitive negative emotional states, like anger, anxiety & sadness.
This group is designed to help you learn about yourself and others. You’ll learn new ways to think about things; this can help you examine old, limiting beliefs you carry and decide if you want to change them for yourself.
An important aspect of this group is the strong support you’ll find from others, and eventually from yourself. You will have the chance to practice giving and receiving support in a new way. Most people experience that they internalize the support they receive in group and go on feeling increased support even after the group has ended!
Another positive effect of this group is learning to feel empowered! You’ll learn how to give yourself permission to be powerful in your life, and how to avoid invitations to negative behaviors.
Emotions that are so intense or painful they are hard to manage, or numbness and an absence of emotion.
Behavior problems; impulsive actions that lead to trouble and regrets, or difficulty doing anything at all.

These are just some of the symptoms that people in this group have experienced. If you experience any of these symptoms, this group may be for you.

This group is professionally led by a Group & Family Therapist trained in DBT, NVR, Schema Therapy, Transactional Analysis & Redecision Therapy. It has been designed in order to increase willingness to use authentic emotions for active problem solving while decreasing unwanted emotional states. This group draws from DBT (Dialectic Behavior Therapy) techniques; this therapy technique has been shown to be effective for increasing emotion regulation, distress tolerance, self awareness, and social skills. We strongly encourage personal responsibility, while also utilizing peer support to create personal safety and make changes.
