DBT Reading
Whether you have been suffering from Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) for many years or it is something that you have only recently found yourself having to deal with, we can help.
Comprehensive DBT Therapy in Reading
We are a team of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) experts, specialising in the treatment of BPD. Thanks to modern technology, we’re able to offer DBT in Reading to adolescents and adults in small online groups. Wherever you are and whatever your schedule is like, you should be able to find a treatment programme with us that meets all of your needs. We have been helping people with BPD for more than a decade, with an excellent rate of success.
Enrolling in a Course of DBT in Reading
If you live or work in Reading, you can book an assessment with us to discover whether DBT is the best treatment for your condition. After completing the assessment, which can normally be organised within 24 hours, we can discuss your options and help you to choose the most appropriate one. Whilst we do offer individual therapy sessions, we have found that the majority of people with BPD make faster progress when treated in small groups. For this reason, we would encourage you to try group sessions first unless you have a compelling reason not to. No personal details are discussed during the sessions so there are no privacy concerns.
What Our DBT in Reading Involves
DBT is a form of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which means that it focuses on analysing your current behaviours and learning new ways to regulate both your behaviour and your moods/emotions. Unlike some types of therapy, it doesn’t require you to work through past events and relationship issues; rather it helps you to look at what is happening now and to acquire new skills that make life easier to handle on a day-to-day basis. Most patients find their symptoms are significantly reduced after completing a whole course, with many no longer meeting the criteria for a BPD diagnosis. If this sounds like a goal you would like to achieve, book an assessment with us now.
Book Your Initial Assessment
If you want to discuss DBT in more detail with one of our experts before you book an assessment, please feel free to contact us by phone or email, or by completing the form on our website. We will be delighted to answer all your questions and to help you make the right choice for your specific needs.
Amy Matthew2022-06-25I have had so many years struggling with my anxiety and have seen a few professionals over the years but my time I have spent with Jason has really helped me become so much more confident in myself and I can't thank him enough for taking the time to understand my issues and giving me the best tools that will stay with me and help me to continue to grow and become a stronger woman. Thank you Jason.
Jack Christodoulou2022-06-25I would like to express my gratitude to Jason Ward for he's amazing help and getting me through dark times and into the light again. (I didn't think it was possible) many thanks life is better now.
Tallie Samuels2021-08-10I completed all four modules of the DBT course in 2020, and I can honestly say my life has been changed. I received so much support from Jason & Jerinda throughout my sessions, and I always felt like I was in a safe space with them. Throughout the course, I built up skills that I am still using today. I now find everyday life easier to manage; feel more in control of my emotional responses; am able to to tap into 'wise mind' rather than thinking in black & white; and I have a number of coping skills that make emotional crises easier to manage, when they do happen. This is the best course of therapy I have ever completed, and I have tried many different kinds in my lifetime. Thanks to the skills I learnt on the course, and to my own hard work integrating them into my life, I now live a life that feels worth living. Thank you.
Samantha Tran-Larkin2019-11-26I have completed 2 modules of the DBT programme so far and I can honestly say it has honestly changed my life. I am not a stranger to therapy. 2 years ago I started general psychotherapy following the birth of my 4th child as I developed what I thought was PND. I also had a volatile relationship. Because of my personal circumstances, things progressively got worse. When I started the DBT programme I was lost, angry, hopeless and saw this as my last chance to solve some crisis of mine. 2 modules in, I feel refreshed and optimistic. I understand myself more and get boundaries. I am more productive and for the first time in a long while I can actually say I am happy. I will most likely revisit certain modules for a little refresh and will continue to use my invaluable DBT skills everyday. Thank you Jason.
Sevda Sipahi2019-10-01I was feeling insecure, anxious and depressed. I have joined the DBT sessions. I found it so helpful and effective. Before DBT, l wasn’t aware of the skills. Jason and Jurenda are such amazing people with their knowledge and positivity. They were so supportive. They taught me the skills and motivated me a lot to use the skills. Gradually l felt l improved myself quite a lot and definitely l feel much better now than before. It also improved my self confidence. I am more aware of myself now than before. I learnt to be in wise mind rather than being too emotional or too rational. I want to thank Jason and Jurenda for their good work, support and kindness.
Jess2018-03-08I've been working on my DBT skills with Jason for the past 9 months. In that time I have learnt enough repair damaged relationships with family, to begin to curb my unhealthy 'problem behaviours' and to start to build back up my self esteem and work on treating myself with kindness and compassion. I would thoroughly recommend DBT therapy, I think we all have a lot to learn from it. Without it and without Jason I wouldn't be where I am right now - I'm very grateful.
Samuel Perry2018-02-10Jason helped me through a very low period in my life, I was depressed and anxious, using DBT skills helped resolve my symptoms.
Daniel Fox2018-01-30Got the training last year here and I can clearly say I am much skilled in DBT. They have changed my skill and this course is really helpful. Thanks
