Through a combination of psychoeducation, case illustrations, and experiential activities, participants will learn tools to help clients survive emotional crises without making things worse, and strengthen inner resilience. You will walk away with a personalized toolbox of DBT skills to help your client respond to intense emotions with intention rather than reaction.
