BH STAR Group
BHSTAR is 2 hour, 1 day a week CBT and DBT-informed skills group for individuals that need a lower level of care than our BHIOP but a higher level of care than individual BH therapy. This group be used by graduates of the BHIOP as a 16-week step-down group that focuses on reviewing skills learned in the BHIOP while providing social support to group members, and can also be used by individuals in need of less intense behavioral health skills training.
Skills covered include mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance with the goal of helping individuals increase functioning by learning to more effectively manage difficult situations, intense emotions, interpersonal relationships, and daily life stressors.
