Description

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is a powerful, evidence-based treatment that allows clinicians to provide positive outcomes for clients of all ages struggling with stress, depression, trauma, suicidal and self-destructive behaviors and a variety of other clinical presentations.

This 3-day Certification Training will build the core competencies you need to bring DBT into your clinical practice and effectively use it with a wide range of client types. In just 3 days you’ll be given a roadmap to treat individuals using the skills and techniques from DBT so you can help your most challenging clients reach new levels of healing.

Even if you’ve attended other Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) trainings, this program will increase your competency and clinical sophistication with DBT when working with adults, youth, substance users and trauma survivors in a wide variety of settings.

Better still, you’ll not only leave this event with a powerful treatment approach, you’ll also have fulfilled the education requirements should you choose to pursue Certification in Dialectical Behavior Therapy through Evergreen Certification Institute (visit evgci.com for details).

Sign up today and get the skills and confidence you need to successfully help your clients with the power of DBT!
