Class Details
Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO DBT) is an innovative, evidence-based treatment designed for individuals who experience excessive self-control, often called overcontrol (OC). This therapy helps develop skills that promote openness to new experiences, flexible thinking and stronger social connections and intimacy.
Our RO DBT class is offered both in-person and online. The course lasts approximately six months, and new participants can join at any time throughout the year, depending on available spots. To maintain a supportive environment, class size is limited to 10 people.
The class is open to adults aged 18 and over, including University of Vermont Health patients, community members and staff.
