Description

In Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), skills training aims to enhance clients’ capabilities in regulating emotions and navigating their relationships, and ensuring that these skills are generalized to all contexts. In this webinar, you will learn distress tolerance skills from DBT that help clients embrace difficult circumstances, tolerate intense emotions and resist impulsive urges. You will learn practical skills that can be integrated into your work with clients in individual and/or group therapy to treat a variety of emotional and behavioural issues.

This is part of a webinar series covering the four categories of DBT skills including mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Attendees will be entered into a draw to win a copy of The DBT Skills Daily Journal.
