Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) & Radically Open DBT (RO-DBT) Groups
DBT Assist offers online groups that are designed to be engaging and interactive to enhance an individual's capacity to acquire DBT and/or RO-DBT Skills! Through DBT Assist individuals can attend groups online and continue with their current individual therapist or commence treatment with one of our Australian DBT Institute credentialed DBT and/or RO-DBT practitioners!
DBT & RO-DBT Trained Mental Health Professionals
We’re passionate about ensuring individuals attending our groups gain essential DBT skills. That’s why we invest in our facilitators development, research and supervision so they can pass on their expertise and knowledge to participants.
