Resources: Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Skills Group
Medications alone are rarely sufficient to propel you to your best life. The scope and variety available through mental health service offerings can be confusing and appear contradictory, even for us professionals.
This is why I am passionate about helping clients understand the limitations of medication, and learn about non-medication based services that may augment your care.
To this end, I recommend Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills training to many of my clients, to address emotional regulation or interpersonal difficulties.
My colleague, Megan Quigley, LCSW, offers a virtual, weekly 24-week dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills training group that will begin on Wednesday, January 10th, 2024!
This group will be offered to adults 18+ in Oregon. It will meet Wednesday evenings from 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM PST via Zoom and will cover all of the standard DBT skills:
Mindfulness
Emotional Regulation
Distress Tolerance
interpersonal Effectiveness
Additional requirements for this group include:
1. Clients must meet with their primary therapist once per week for the duration of the group.
2. Cost is $50 per group session (per week).
Megan offer complimentary 20-minute consultations by phone, video or in-person, so you can learn more about the group and get a feel for her style as a clinician.
Please feel free to reach out to Megan directly.
Past client responses:
"I am so glad that I chose to participate in this group! Thank you for welcoming me and for your support throughout. It’s been a helpful, meaningful, and rewarding process. I am 'observing mindfully' that I am going to miss meeting each week."
"Group with Megan has been tremendously helpful! I’ve been seeing myself move through conflicts in a smarter, less stressful way - and having less anxiety day to day. I feel like I’m becoming a functioning adult!"
