Compass Academy Live Online- DBT Essentials Series-Part 2- Mindfulness and Distress Tolerance

Equip Your Clients with the Tools for Crisis Survival and Radical Acceptance
Building on the groundwork laid in “Firm Foundations,” this second installment of our Clinician Training Series dives deep into the two “Acceptance-Based” pillars of Dialectical Behavior Therapy. This workshop provides practitioners with advanced strategies to help clients survive immediate crises without making them worse and develop a life-changing practice of mindfulness.
What We Will Cover:
The Architecture of Mindfulness: Move beyond basic concepts to master the “What” and “How” skills. Learn to teach clients how to access “Wise Mind” to balance emotion and reason.
Crisis Survival Strategies: Gain proficiency in the TIPP and STOP skills. Understand how to coach clients through intense emotional “storms” using physiological and cognitive interventions.
The Path of Reality Acceptance: Explore the clinical application of Radical Acceptance, Turning the Mind, and Willingness vs. Willfulness. Learn how to help clients decrease suffering by accepting reality as it is.
Advanced Clinical Coaching: Practice troubleshooting common barriers clinicians face when teaching these skills to highly dysregulated clients.
