DBT Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. Specialists Christchurch

Christchurch DBT Programme

DBT is a comprehensive, specialist therapy. We offer individual DBT therapy, and also a comprehensive, evidence based programme with these components: 

  1. A weekly skills training group programme.
  2. Phone coaching when required to reinforce use of skills in between sessions.
  3. Therapists attend consultation meetings to ensure we offer the best standard of care possible, and with your permission liaise with other professionals involved in your care.
  4. We also require participants to attend individual therapy sessions (external to the Christchurch DBT programme) at least fortnightly.

Whilst there are many counsellors, psychotherapists, and psychologists offering individual DBT therapy, we are proud to be able to offer the most comprehensive adult DBT treatment programme available in Christchurch. More importantly, available research shows that DBT is more effective when it involves a skills training group as well as individual therapy.

If you are on a low income, available subsidies may completely cover the cost of attending the skills group. If you are not already engaged in individual counselling or therapy, we are happy to discuss you needs and help you find the right person to fulfill the individual therapy requirements of the program. 

Group guidelines are available for viewing here.
