DBT  Group Therapy

DBT Group is the treatment of choice for individuals struggling with intense emotions, excessive relational conflict, extreme thinking, and/or self-destructive behaviors.

Referral Process 

If you are already a client at the Pauquette Center, speak to your therapist about the group and about being referred.

If you are not a current Pauquette Center client, please complete the External Referral form on the Website. Once we have enough people referred, we will schedule you for a short screening to provide background information and determine if the group would be a good fit. If you are a good fit, you will be required to complete new client paperwork, and be scheduled for a session to complete an intake and a treatment plan.
