Description of service
A group therapy group for learning dialectical behavior and coping skills. Small group, approximately six to nine people to a therapist. Homework, reading and two hour sessions to discuss the completed homework, as well as the new module (lesson). Covered by insurance, except for copay. People without insurance were eligible for charity care to reduce total price.
Review of Service
Absolutely amazing! In a very quick seven weeks, we managed to go over an entire book of material. The program (which has been designed by a lead psychiatrist in the industry, and is followed by the instructors) is very comprehensive, but easy to understand. I was simply amazed at the amount of material covered. No supplies were necessary, all the papers were provided, as well as homework sheets, and diary cards to cover every day issues that might come up. I would definitely recommend this type of group therapy to everyone.
Tips
Definitely do your research, so you understand what you're getting into. Many people will sign up for a group therapy type of situation, then show up once and never come back, unable to handle the format. Group therapy is a very different setup from regular individual or couples therapy, but is highly beneficial to many people.
