How the group works
Strong emotions can shape decisions, relationships, and overall well-being, even for accomplished people. When emotions become overwhelming, it is easy to feel reactive, exhausted, or stuck in patterns that create unnecessary suffering.
This structured skills group teaches practical strategies for understanding emotions, responding rather than reacting, and building greater psychological flexibility.
Using evidence-based techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), participants learn practical strategies for managing difficult emotions, tolerating distress, and building lasting emotional resilience.

Frequently asked questions
-
This group is for adults who are motivated to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and practice new ways of responding to familiar challenges. It may be especially helpful if you notice recurring patterns in how you communicate, manage emotions, set boundaries, or connect with others.
-
No. Previous therapy experience is not required. What matters most is a willingness to reflect, participate, and consider new ways of understanding yourself and your relationships.
-
Not at all. You don't need to be experiencing overwhelming emotions or significant distress to benefit from this group. Many people manage their day-to-day responsibilities well but notice that stress, frustration, anxiety, or disappointment can sometimes be difficult to navigate.
This group is for adults who want to better understand their emotional responses, recognize patterns in how they react to challenging situations, and develop practical skills to respond more intentionally. Whether you tend to become overwhelmed, shut down, overthink, or push your feelings aside, the goal is to build greater emotional flexibility and resilience, not to eliminate difficult emotions altogether.
-
During the consultation, we'll discuss what you're hoping to change, the situations that feel most challenging, and whether this skills group is the right fit for your goals. I'll answer your questions, explain how the group works, and help determine whether this group or another service would better meet your needs. There is no obligation to join after the consultation.
-
Because each session builds on the previous one, regular attendance is encouraged to help you get the most from the group. Enrollment reserves your place for the full six-week group, so the session fee applies even if you are unable to attend a particular session. If you know you'll be absent, please let me know in advance whenever possible. While missed sessions cannot be made up individually, you'll receive guidance on how to stay engaged with the material.
-
Groups are intentionally kept small, typically 4 to 6 members, with a maximum of 8. This allows for meaningful discussion, personal attention, and a strong sense of trust among members.
-
Both. Each session includes structured teaching, guided discussion, and opportunities to practice new skills. While participation is encouraged, there is never pressure to share more than you feel comfortable discussing.
