Also included in semester memberships

Course Summary

DBT Mindfulness & Wise Mind is a six-week group coaching course designed to build the foundational awareness skills at the heart of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Mindfulness is the cornerstone of DBT because it supports everything else — emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. In this course, you’ll learn how to slow down, observe your inner experience with clarity, and reconnect with Wise Mind — the grounded inner knowing that emerges when emotion and logic work together rather than compete.  

Through structured lessons, guided practices, and group reflection, this course offers a calm, supportive way to build steadiness, presence, and choice in everyday life.


Who This Course is For

DBT Mindfulness & Wise Mind may be a good fit if you:

  • Sometimes feel overwhelmed, reactive, or caught in emotional loops 
  • Want practical mindfulness skills that feel clear, grounded, and accessible  
  • Are curious about DBT and want a gentle, structured introduction  
  • Are working with a coach or therapist and want skills to support that work  
  • Want to feel more present, centered, and steady in daily life  
  • Are looking for tools to reconnect with your body and inner experience

Whether you’re new to DBT or looking to your knowledge, this course offers a supportive, skill-based path toward greater clarity and inner steadiness.


What You’ll Practice and Learn

This course teaches the essential DBT mindfulness skills — the practices that help you notice your experience clearly, create space before reacting, and respond with greater wisdom and care.
 
Over six weeks, you’ll learn how to:

  • Notice thoughts, emotions, and sensations without getting pulled into them 
  • Create space between stimulus and response so you can choose how to act  
  • Strengthen Wise Mind, the balanced awareness at the heart of DBT  
  • Build present-moment awareness that supports emotional regulation  
  • Feel more grounded, centered, and connected in daily life and relationships

Each week introduces skills in a way that is simple, practical, and repeatable — something you can return to whenever you need steadiness.


Weekly Live Sessions

Each live session is a 90-minute DBT coaching group and includes:

  • Guided mindfulness practices to build awareness and grounding 
  • Clear teaching of DBT mindfulness skills using accessible language  
  • Experiential exercises to explore thoughts, emotions, and sensations  
  • Group reflection to support understanding and integration  
  • Space for questions and shared learning within a supportive container

Sessions are structured and experiential, emphasizing lived practice and real-world application rather than theory alone.


Course Curriculum

Access & Scheduling

  • One live group session per week (90 minutes) 
  • The coaching group is offered in two weekly cohorts — you’re encouraged to choose one primary cohort to attend consistently
  • All sessions are recorded and available for replay, allowing you to engage with the material at a pace that fits your life
  • If you miss your regular session, you may attend the alternate cohort that week as a make-up or watch the session recording

Course access remains available for 120 days from the date of enrollment, allowing time for review, reflection, and integration beyond the live sessions.

Because access to digital materials and course content is provided immediately upon enrollment, this program is non-refundable once access has been granted.
