RO DBT is an evidence-based treatment for patients with emotional over-control. ‘Self-control’ is usually seen as a good thing, however too much self-control can cause difficulties. Excessive self-control is associated with social isolation and poor interpersonal relations and it contributes to conditions like anorexia nervosa, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, chronic depression and autistic spectrum disorders.
Dr Karen LI runs the RO DBT course across 4 modules which can be completed in any order. You will get the best experience attending a live class, but this online guided self-paced option is for those who can’t make the live classes.
What does guided self-paced mean?
Guided self-paced means that you can do lessons in the course at any time and once a week, Dr Karen Li will provide individualised feedback to you.
Module D targets building social connectedness and difficulties with jealousy, bitterness, cynicism and forgiveness.
