Is your teen riding an emotional rollercoaster that never seems to stop? Do negative thoughts and stormy relationships paint the current reality of your teen’s life?
The sad truth is that teens report stress levels higher than adults, and one-third of teens regularly feel overwhelment, sadness, and fatigue (even when on summer break). Anxious youths are more likely to become depressed. And today, inability to focus is the most common disorder of childhood.
The good news is that Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is research-proven to help adolescents and teens. So are holistic foundations like exercise, nutrition, sleep, breathing, and knowing how to pursue life dreams.
Combining DBT Skills with holistic foundations provides your teen the clearest, simplest and most complete roadmap for graciously accepting challenges, while simultaneously providing access for real joy to shine through from within.
These are skills that every family needs, but are not taught in school.

The DBT Holistic Workbook for teens is built like a ladder which layers each session so that it prepares the teen for the next one, reminding me very much of the work I do with Cognitive Processing Therapy. This makes all skills very effective, as well as more relevant and applicable, which I find so important for the teens in my own practice.
