Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DBT skills group and how is it different from regular therapy?
A DBT skills group focuses on teaching practical coping skills rather than talking through past experiences. Each week, you'll learn a new tool and practice it with support. It's structured and educational — like taking a class with real-world impact. Individual therapy helps you explore personal issues; the group gives you tools to apply.
How long is the DBT skills group and how often does it meet?
The group meets once a week for two hours. A full round of skills training takes about six months. Graduates complete each module twice — usually about a year of group attendance. We offer both morning and evening sessions, in-person and online.
Do I need to be in individual therapy to join?
Yes — you'll either need to be part of our full DBT program (which includes individual therapy) or already be working with a DBT-trained therapist elsewhere. If you're joining group-only, we'll schedule a brief orientation to make sure this setup works for you.
What if I'm nervous about joining a group?
Completely normal. DBT groups are not about processing your deepest emotions in front of others. It's a structured, class-like environment focused on learning skills. You'll always have the option to participate in a way that feels comfortable, and the group is led by trained therapists who prioritize safety and respect.
Can I attend virtually?
Yes — our DBT skills group is available both online and in-person. The virtual format follows the same structure, including interactive exercises, skill review, and handouts. Many clients appreciate the flexibility, especially those outside the Denver area.
Is this right for me if other therapies haven't worked?
DBT can be a great option if you've tried other therapies without success. Many clients come to us after feeling stuck or unsupported. DBT offers concrete, structured skills that go beyond talking — giving you real tools to change behavior and feel more in control.
Will I have homework?
Yes, but it's manageable and meaningful. Homework helps you apply what you've learned — things like using a specific skill during a stressful moment, keeping a mindfulness log, or tracking emotional responses. Your therapist tailors assignments to your pace.
How do I sign up?
The first step is to contact us for a consultation or intake session. If you're interested in the full DBT program, we'll help you start that process. If you already have an individual DBT therapist, we'll schedule a group orientation. It's an easy, supportive way to take the next step.
