Glad you're here!
Together with other parents and our skilled clinicians, you’ll learn how to incorporate the principles and techniques of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
DBT is a compassionate, evidence-based form of treatment that focuses on behavior change as well as validation and acceptance. You’ll be able to better manage intense emotions, develop greater self-awareness, enhance attention and improve relationships.

NEW THIS FALL - Parent Circle 2.0
Now in development, Parent Circle 2.0 continues the parenting journey. We will be offering this continuation of our DBT-based program to the hundreds of alums who have participated in our program over the past several years. The focus of this curriculum goes deeper by helping parents understand their own parenting styles, how their family history shapes this, and teaches targeted skills to help them change their children’s behaviors. Stay tuned!
IS THE PARENT CIRCLE RIGHT FOR YOU?
(The answer is YES.)
LMCCC's Circle programming offers short-term workshops that incorporate the principles and techniques of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help participants manage intense emotions, develop greater self-awareness, enhance attention and improve relationships. DBT is a practical, evidence-based treatment that teaches skills for approaching emotional struggles in a non-judgmental and effective way.
​
Participation in our workshops provides family members with a shared language and toolbox of skills, which can supplement and be reinforced in individual and/or family therapy when needed. For a skills refresher, check out some of the resources on our skills page.
​
The Circle groups are co-led by our DBT team: Joan Chess, School Psychologist, Christine Danberg, LCSW, Alan Dienstag, Psy.D., and Katie Sawyer, Ph.D.
