Parental Support
Parents receive full access to our self-paced, 22-week Adult DBT curriculum, which mirrors our Adolescent DBT program. In addition, parents are invited to attend a live session at the start of each skills module. These sessions provide an overview of what teens will be learning, empowering parents to better support their child.
Course Modules
This course includes all four DBT skills modules in our 22-week program. All modules are 6 weeks long except for Mindfulness which is 4 weeks long. Mindfulness is slightly shorter because it is integrated into all the other modules and serves as the foundation for DBT. Students can start our program with any DBT module.
