Do you struggle with managing intense emotions, getting through distressing situations or maintaining relationships? If so, online Emotion Regulation Skills Training may be right for you.
As part of the online Emotion Regulation Skills Training program, registered participants work in a group format with a dedicated Layla partner therapist to gain control of their emotions and thought patterns while increasing capacity to act and communicate effectively with others.
Throughout the 12 week program, participants join weekly online sessions where they learn to implement Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) techniques and strategies including mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.
Registration for the Spring 2020 program is now closed. To learn more about scheduling for future programs, contact us.

DBT was first designed for clients with Borderline Personality Disorder, a population characterized by emotion dysregulation. DBT is now widely used to treat other mental health concerns, including anxiety and mood disorders. The comprehensive model of DBT is completed over one year and includes individual therapy, skills group, phone coaching and consultation team.
Is this program right for me?
The Emotion Regulation Skills Training program is designed for adults over the age of 18 whose emotions (i.e. fear, anger, shame, sadness, guilt) and thoughts interfere with their overall quality of life. In other words, people whose mental health challenges are characterized by emotion dysregulation.
