DBT Group Session

G. Raymond McCullough of The Juanita Center LLC and Lisa Fladager of BodySoul Work are combining over a half century of counseling experience to offer an ongoing 26-week Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills Group.

This new DBT group is specially designed for individuals searching for new ways of solving substance abuse problems and improving their overall quality of life. The therapy provides skills-focused treatment that specializes in teaching individuals to control moods and impulses, deal with stress, and manage relationships. Many substance abusers use their drug of choice to regulate their emotions and improve their moods. DBT can provide needed support, direction, and relief.
