Professional Development Retreats for Mental Health Practitioners Hosted by the Australian DBT Institute & SEA DBT InstituteSince 2010, the Australian DBT Institute has successfully hosted retreats for mental health professionals in Australia, Thailand and Bali, offering immersive training experiences grounded in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and DBT-informed practices. With Dr. Peter King, our Clinical and Academic Lead, now based in Thailand, the Institute has expanded its presence across Southeast Asia through the newly formed SEA DBT Institute, in collaboration with colleagues in Thailand and Singapore.
Our professional development retreats now have a permanent home at WISE Mind Retreats in Khao Lak, Phang Nga, Thailand—an ideal environment for focused learning, skills development, and personal renewal.
This upcoming retreat is specifically designed for mental health professionals—including psychologists, social workers, counsellors, nurses, doctors and allied health clinicians—who are seeking to integrate DBT or DBT-informed approaches into their clinical practice. The program includes a minimum of 40 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) hours, fulfilling many professional body requirements for annual training and development.
Participants will gain:
- In-depth understanding of DBT principles and their clinical application
- Practical strategies for delivering individual and group-based skills training
- Opportunities for reflective practice, experiential learning, and peer consultation
- Time for personal self-care and mindfulness-based renewal in a supportive environment
Program details and registration information will be available by July 1st, 2025.
