How Group Therapy Can Help
Group therapy allows members a unique opportunity to use skills in a compassionate, non-judgmental environment with individuals who are experiencing the same struggles. This environment helps people to better understand how they relate to others and to make positive changes in their relationships. It is a cost-effective way to access therapy and a safe environment to learn new skills.
How Group Therapy Works
Observing the group in action gives the therapists a window into how each member functions in a social situation, allowing facilitators to provide valuable feedback to group members. Group leaders provide compassion and empathy while also challenging members to replace self-defeating beliefs and behaviours with more positive and productive ones. DBT focuses on four sets of skills, each taught in 5 week modules: Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation and Interpersonal Effectiveness. The modules repeat every 20 weeks, allowing clients to repeat the group until they have developed a good grasp of the skills and have integrated them into their lives.
