DBT Bingo! Come join our game. The Distress Tolerance module begins tonight. There are still spots available, and the group will be open for new members for the next two weeks! Give me a call, and we’ll work out the details. #dbtrocks #dbtskills #dbtskillsgroup #dbtskillsgroupatlanta #distresstolerance #distresstoleranceskills I’m finally official! After seeing clients in my new home for four weeks (official start date was November 1), my office has its new name! The transition was not with hiccups, and I’m feeling comfortable in my new digs. I’m grateful to all the people who helped me with this transition, including my family, @dragonflyreikiatlanta, and Gibson Chiropractic. I’m also grateful to my clients for their support and patience through this process. I have certainly been Building Mastery over the last weeks, as well as using Radical Acceptance. I’m grateful for my DBT skills. #dbtskillsrock #dbtskills #buildingmastery #emotionregulationskills #emotionregulation I’ve wanted to make my own coffee cake for many years. This morning, we decided to make one with a recipe found in one of my current favorite cookbooks. Not only was this a pleasant event spent with my son and his unicorn (who helped put some chocolate chips in) it was also an opportunity for building mastery! A veritable DBT win-win! And, it’s delicious! We’ll definitely be making this one again! #dbtrocks #dbtskills #buildingmastery #dailypleasantevents #pleasantevents Regular pleasant events create moments of positive emotions that add up to increase our vulnerability to positive emotions in the long term. Yesterday, we went to the “pumpkin patch” for the last weekend of the season and had a great time building positive emotions into our day. I believe the best part of the day was spent sitting in a pit of corn! Who knew?! Although, the tunnel slide rocked! And, so did the flowers... #dbtskills #dbtrocks #pleasantevents Creating a life worth living begins with imagining that life can be better than it is currently and that change is possible. I believe that DBT can help with the rest. #dbtrocks #dbttherapy #dbttherapyworks #dbtskills #lifeworthliving So much can be learned from young people who lack the fear of failure and who one-mindfully create masterpieces out of Halloween candy and day-old cupcakes. Here, I appreciate the “plating” of the desserts as well as how he made the bakery cupcakes his by adding his own toppings. I’m not too disappointed by how he uses candy for art, rather than food. This display is an example of how he naturally GIVEs to his relationships, as this is a surprise for out-of-town guests. One thing about DBT skills that has struck me is that they are typically skills we already have to some degree. In DBT, we learn to use them intentionally (after we learn the acronyms 😃). #dbtrocks #dbtskills #onemindfully #giveskills #interpersonaleffectiveness #interpersonaleffectivenessskills
