DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy): Life skills workshop

Missing something in your life skills tool box? 
Amidst all of the events in the past 20 months, you may feel that you have less capacity to easily tolerate stress than had in the past. 

Join this workshop to review potentially helpful skills and evidence-based strategies that have been demonstrated to reduce physical and emotional responses and may help balance your rational, logical mindset with the more emotional mindset, so you can feel more grounded and centered in your responses and decision making. 

DBT (dialectal behavioral therapy) is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) whose primary goals are to teach people how to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate emotions, and improve relationships with others. 

If you are interested in changing some of your behavioral patterns and managing your emotions more effectively, while also treating yourself and others less judgmentally, then this could be helpful to you.
