Free DBT Lecture Series

Details
You're inivited to Sharp's free DBT lecture series, taught by therapists from the DBT-IOP skills program - an intensive therapy program that helps us learn skills to tolerate distress, regulate emotion, interact with others effectively, and be mindful. A lot of us have been through DBT and this is a great way to keep up on the material, OR it's a great way to learn DBT skills for free if you can't afford a program or don't have time. ;) It's definitely worth attending at least a few times.
The lectures are open to consumers and family/friends age 18+, every 2nd and 4th Tuesday.
Lecture Goals:
- Teach some of the basic DBT ideas and skills they teach in the program.
- Explain how maladaptive behaviors develop and are maintained.
- Explore ways to provide an environment that balances validation (where the focus is on acceptance) and problem-solving (where the focus is on change).
- Provide mutual support and problem solving between lecture attendees.
