We are offering a group therapy and skills development program for adults over the age of 18 experiencing difficulties in emotions, distress, anxiety, and relationships. The program will run for 8 weeks (2 hours per week) and is based upon skills developed for dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT).

The group is facilitated by provisionally registered Psychology students, under the supervision of a Clinical Psychologist. Please note that this program is only offered at the Sydney Campus.

In this program, we will:
• Explore how we think and build mindfulness practices in everyday experiences and routines.
• Learn skills in how to survive, accept, and overcome stressful or anxiety inducing experiences.
• Learn to move ourselves out of constantly being in ‘crisis mode’.
• Develop skills in identifying, expressing, and working with our emotions.
• Build skills in communication: learning how to assert ourselves; strengthen our relationships with others; and increase our confidence and self-respect.

There are two groups available:

Emotion Regulation and Distress Skills Group for Young Adults aged 17-25
Emotion Regulation and Distress Skills Group for Adults 18+

There is no cost or Medicare referral needed. Self-referrals are welcome, so please get in touch today!
