Group Therapies
TAP Clinic Group Therapies:
The TAP Clinic offers a variety of psychotherapy groups. Each group is run by a TAP Clinician, who often co-leads with one of our trainees. Each group has eligibility requirements for entry and their own fee schedule.
Emotional Resiliency Groups:
This skills focused group aims to teach techniques from DBT, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness each aimed at helping clients engage with emotions effectively, without becoming overwhelmed or disengaged. Clients may join a group after they have completed the intake process and at the next available group opening (typically every 6-8 weeks). Find out more about this group here.
Emotional Resiliency Group (Thursdays, 5:30-7:30pm)
Leaders: Dr. Byars and Sarah Owens, MA
To schedule an intake or learn more about the Emotional Resiliency group, please email Dr. Byars at info@tapclinicnc.com
DBT Groups:
We are currently offering four DBT groups as part of our comprehensive adolescent and adult DBT programs. Clients may join a group after they have completed the intake process and at the next available group opening (typically every 6-8 weeks).
Consistent with the empirically supported treatment model, clients who enroll in our comprehensive DBT program are required to participate in individual therapy with an intensively trained DBT therapist. Clients are also asked to commit to 24 group sessions (6-8 months), which will cover one full round of the DBT skills. All TAP individual DBT clients are eligible for our groups; some additional paperwork is required for clients who see individual therapists outside of TAP. New clients must first schedule an intake session to determine goodness of fit for the program.
