Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)

Virtual DBT Skills Group in Minneapolis & Across Minnesota

At Choices Psychotherapy, we believe everyone deserves access to effective, evidence-based care—no matter where they are. That’s why we’re proud to offer a Virtual DBT Skills Group for individuals in Minneapolis and throughout Minnesota.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a proven treatment that helps individuals manage overwhelming emotions, reduce impulsive behaviors, and build healthier relationships. Our virtual DBT group format provides the same high-quality therapy you’d receive in person, with the added flexibility and convenience of joining from home.

What is a DBT Skills Group?

A DBT Skills Group is structured like a class, where participants learn and practice specific tools to improve their emotional and mental well-being. Unlike individual therapy, skills groups focus on teaching strategies and practicing them together.

Our Virtual DBT Skills Group includes four core modules:

  • Mindfulness: Learning to stay grounded in the present moment
  • Distress Tolerance: Building skills to manage crisis situations without making them worse
  • Emotion Regulation: Identifying and balancing difficult emotions effectively
  • Interpersonal Effectiveness: Communicating clearly, setting boundaries, and building healthy relationships

By attending the group, you’ll not only learn these skills but also gain a supportive space to practice them with others who share similar challenges.

Who Can Benefit from Virtual DBT?

Our DBT Skills Group in Minnesota is ideal for adults who are experiencing:

  • Intense mood swings or emotional dysregulation
