DBTeens Online Skills Classes for Teenagers


After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to close our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), effective April 24, 2026. 

This decision was not made lightly. We are deeply proud of the meaningful work accomplished through the IOP and the lives impacted by the dedication and compassion of our clinical team. It has been an honor to serve our clients and their families. 

Our top priority during this transition is continuity of care. All current clients have been notified, and we are working individually with each person to ensure appropriate referrals and uninterrupted support. We are coordinating with trusted community providers to help facilitate a smooth transition. 

While the IOP will be closing, DBT For You remains committed to teaching DBT skills to individuals, school personnel, clinicians, and organizations. We will continue offering skills classes, coaching, training and consultations, and we look forward to serving our community in these capacities. 

*** New DBT Skills classes will begin April 9, 2026 *** 

We are grateful to our staff, referral partners, and the community for their trust and support.
