Pursuing DBT-Linehan Board of Certification (DBT-LBC) for your DBT program and/or clinicians?
If you or your DBT teammates are pursuing DBT-LBC Individual Certification or LBC-DBT Program Certification, consider joining us. Embedded within a standard Part II, we’ll:
- Carefully dissect DBT individual therapy sessions and DBT skills training groups to highlight what is/isn’t DBT;
- Methodically develop your capacity to build and write up a DBT case conceptualization, and develop an effective treatment plan;
- Strengthen core clinical competencies
- Build DBT Team cohesion and communication
Other things to know before you decide
- This is not a review of basic material. All applicants are required to have already completed a five-day DBT Intensive Training or equivalent provided by a DBT expert.
- Two evening sessions are included to watch/rate DBT sessions.
- We may invite you to bring a case presentation (including written case conceptualization of your client and video/audio of a session) and/or a presentation of your program.
- Delicious and nutritious morning breakfast and afternoon snack served daily!
TWO WAYS TO PARTICIPATE
Whenever possible, we recommend that 3 or more team members attend together. This will provide the optimal conditions to strengthen your team, your own program, and your mastery of DBT. Teams with 3+ members will have an opportunity to present a case and their program for expert feedback and advice. As time allows, participants who come on their own may also receive feedback on their cases and programs.
OUR APPROACH TO TRAINING
- GO ORGANIC. We want DO (verses talking about it). We’ll model then you give it a go with help and feedback.
- GO BOLD. We are all in and encourage our participants to be all in with us.
- LEVERAGE OUR EXPERIENCE. We’ve been consulting to DBT teams and DBT clinicians all over the world for over two decades. When we consult on cases and programs, we’re bringing all that experience (what works, what doesn’t work) to you to optimize your outcomes.
- YOU BE YOUR MOST CHALLENGING CLIENT. Let us give it a go and see if we can generate effective strategies that may better work in the moment, as consider a mini treatment planning overhaul
