Join a supportive skills group for practical tools to manage big emotions and express yourself to others.
Informed by DBT, we will explore strategies to learn about emotions, mindfulness, distress tolerance and building better relationships/healthy communication. We will have opportunities to use hands-on/crafts to express emotions (no art experience required).
Are you facing challenges like mood swings, intense emotions, impulsivity, decision making troubles or difficulty recognizing emotions?
Spend the afternoon crafting with us, learning new skills and snacks are provided!
The 4 Core Skill Modules:
- Mindfulness: Staying present and aware.
- Distress Tolerance: Surviving crises without making things worse.
- Emotion Regulation: Understanding and reducing emotional vulnerability.
- Interpersonal Effectiveness: Communicating and setting boundaries.
