DBT Psychoeducational Group:
DBT Associates of Nyack is pleased to announce the formation of an educational group for parents, spouses, and/or significant others. The purpose of this group is to acquaint those caring individuals of our patients with the philosophy of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, the specific skills appropriate to different situations experienced by our patients and the vocabulary of these skills. We believe a basic understanding of this material will help support treatment and reduce anxiety that often affects those directly concerned with our patients.
This educational group will begin on Tuesday, January 9, 2023 at 7:00pm-8:15pm. Groups will meet in our Skills Class Meeting Room,
This group is open to all family, friends or significant others 18 years or older. It is not a parenting group, family therapy group or couples therapy support group. Patients in active treatment should not attend this group.
This group will meet for 6 consecutive weeks. Total cost for this group is $450.00, payable in advance prior to the first meeting. Payment entitles 2 individuals per family to attend all groups. If you wish to enroll or have questions please contact our office at 845-358-0919.
Yoga Nidra:
Yoga Nidra is a form of guided meditation that is often referred to as "yogic sleep." It is a practice that involves lying down or seated in a comfortable position with support and following a guided meditation that takes you through a series of relaxation techniques. Yoga Nidra is a powerful tool for reducing stress, anxiety, and tension in the body and improving overall well-being.
You do not need to be a patient at DBT to take this class.
Yoga Nidra is offered In Person and Online.
Yoga Nidra is by appointment only.
