Three Mental Health Benefits of Our DBT Program
Improved Social Skills
Learn skills to address your wants and needs in relationships without damaging them or your self-esteem.
Behavioral Regulation
Learn to tolerate distress and regulate emotions — get through a crisis without making things worse.
Connection & Calm
Increase feelings of connection, contentment, calmness, and safety — whether struggling with depression, anxiety, or loneliness.
What Is DBT?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based therapy that seeks to improve mood, dysregulated emotions, and social isolation by identifying behaviors that cause distress.
Through behavioral analysis we get a better idea of the chain of events surrounding them, what problems they are trying to solve, and a more educated plan of stopping those behaviors.
Get StartedWhy Use D&D in Therapy?
Research on Dungeons & Dragons as a behavioral intervention is still in its early stages, but it is believed to effectively address social isolation often associated with disorders of over-control.
D&D provides structure, fosters social engagement, and allows participants to experiment with new roles and behaviors in a safe and supportive environment. Fun itself is an evidence-based intervention.
