A structured online group for DBT graduates who know the language of skills but need to re-ground, troubleshoot avoidance, and make DBT show up more consistently in ordinary life.
The intake reviews risk, current supports, treatment history, goals, availability, funding, and the amount of structure needed before a service is recommended.
People can remember DBT concepts and still lose access to them under shame, fear, conflict, fatigue, or avoidance. Refresher Plus rebuilds deliberate practice, identifies where the chain breaks down, and strengthens self-correction without returning to the beginning of the entire curriculum.
The group uses a progressive structure with measurable Recovery Goals rather than a loose review of favourite skills.
Consistency comes from a predictable structure that helps participants notice drift early and recommit before the old pattern becomes entrenched.
Group fees generally fall within the current DBT Saskatchewan range of $60–$90 per session. Exact rates, funding, and insurance reimbursement depend on individual circumstances and authorization.
You do not need to know the diagnosis, program, or clinician before reaching out.
No. Equivalent prior DBT skills work may be accepted after clinical review.
No. It assumes familiarity with DBT and focuses more heavily on reactivation, troubleshooting, generalization, and self-sufficiency.
Concrete goals reviewed at the beginning, midpoint, and end of the program to keep the work tied to real-life functioning.
Refresher Plus may not provide enough support. Intake can identify whether individual or comprehensive DBT is safer.
Yes. The group is designed for secure online participation across Saskatchewan.
The secure intake gives the clinic enough information to recommend a proportionate and clinically appropriate next step.
