• Increase Joy & Connection: Our workshop is designed to promote joyful activity and exploration, while also fostering social connections and positive self-esteem.

• Individualized Goals: We prioritize each teen’s individual needs, ensuring that they have a personalized experience that meets their unique goals.

About the DBT Intensive Workshop

This immersive weekend program is designed to help teens develop emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills—key pillars of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Our licensed facilitators create a structured yet engaging environment where teens gain practical, empirically-backed skills they can apply in real life.

The workshop is likely a good fit for teens who:

• Are looking to improve their emotional, mental, and physical well-being.

• Enjoy exploring their creative side and want to engage in expressive therapeutic activities.

• May be struggling with stress, big emotions, relationship difficulties (with friends, family), or social isolation and would benefit from supportive group therapy sessions.

• Are curious about their emotions and want to increase their emotional intelligence and enhance their self-awareness.

• Are seeking a fun and engaging summer program that promotes personal growth and self-discovery.

• Have been recommended DBT but need an accelerated introduction.

• Have some DBT experience but want a refresher or new, engaging ways to apply skills.

• Can benefit from structured support and practical tools to help boost their confidence and navigate emotional challenges.

The breakdown of our tuition fees for the workshop works like so:

• Standard Tuition | $400: This is the base price for the workshop. If you don’t have any financial hardship, we encourage you to support the workshop with this price.

• Equity Tuition | $300: Consider paying this amount if the Standard price of the workshop would create a financial burden. Note, if this amount is still infeasible, please reach out to us.
