What This Webinar Covers

This webinar will include both an overview of the benefits of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills and their role within the broader structure of DBT treatment, a discussion of the different modules of DBT skills and their application, as well as provide you with concrete strategies and tools you can use to help youth manage difficult emotions, build healthy relationships and thrive. Through practical interventions and case-based application, participants will strengthen their ability to understand, implement, and teach these important skills across clinical settings. One hour of CE credit is available for attendees who are present for the entire program. To obtain credit, we will ask that you complete the post-program evaluation form at the conclusion of the program. Your CE certificate will be emailed to you.
