A focused online group that teaches immediate relief skills while building the foundation required for deeper DBT work. It is designed for people who need a clear sequence—not another vague invitation to “calm down.”
The intake reviews risk, current supports, treatment history, goals, availability, funding, and the amount of structure needed before a service is recommended.
Many people understand their emotional pattern when calm. The difficulty is accessing a different response when the nervous system is activated. Emotional Relief builds a sequence of skills for naming the emotion, reducing vulnerability, surviving peaks, and improving the next moment.
The program follows a deliberate progression so participants build a usable emotional-response system rather than collecting disconnected tips.
The current public fee structure is income-based and is billed in blocks of four sessions. Participants also receive access to the STG learning platform for program materials and practice.
Funding or private-insurance reimbursement depends on eligibility, authorization, clinician, and individual benefit terms. Confirm the current rate and payment schedule during intake.
You do not need to know the diagnosis, program, or clinician before reaching out.
No. You are invited to practise and participate, but you are never forced to disclose information you do not want to share.
No. It is a structured DBT skills group with a defined curriculum, activities, practice, and reflection.
Sessions are generally 90–110 minutes, allowing time for teaching, exercises, practice, and questions.
Not necessarily. Intake determines whether group alone is sufficient or whether individual or comprehensive treatment is needed.
When appropriate, the program provides a foundation for the later DBT Skills Group sequence and more advanced work.
The secure intake gives the clinic enough information to recommend a proportionate and clinically appropriate next step.
