Wise Mind, Wiser Body brings together two powerful bodies of work—DBT skills training and nervous system science—because neither one alone tells the whole story.
DBT gives you concrete, evidence-based skills for managing distress, regulating emotions, and navigating relationships. Polyvagal theory explains why those skills can feel impossible to access when your nervous system is flooded or shut down. Together, they create something more complete: skills that make sense in the body, not just the mind.
This group is for you if:
This group runs for 20 weeks; each session runs for 60 minutes.
This group is not a substitute for individual therapy.
Adaptable is a skills group designed specifically for teens—built on the same evidence-based foundations as the adult skills program but translated into language that actually lands.
The program blends DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) with somatic and nervous system work. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing distress, working with emotions, and navigating relationships. Polyvagal theory helps explain why those skills can feel impossible to access when the nervous system is overwhelmed or shut down. Together, they offer something more complete: tools that work in the body, not just in theory.
This group is a good fit when:
Adaptable runs for 15 weeks. Each session is 60 minutes. For ages 16–18.
This group is not a substitute for individual therapy.
