DBT Training, Supervision and Consultation

At Brooklyn Behavioral Therapy we believe that an essential part of increasing access to evidence-based mental health treatment is increasing access to high-quality training and supervision. Many clinicians are trying to learn how to provide"good enough" DBT in environments where they are the only person with any knowledge of the modality, and this can be so difficult to do without adequate individual guidance. DBT training and supervision, like DBT therapy, can be prohibitively expensive and often clinicians with less means have trouble accessing it. â€‹

 

Our goal is to make adherent DBT accessible to as many clients as possible and having more properly trained DBT clinicians only furthers this goal. We would also like to increase clinicians' love for a modality that we have seen to be so transformative for clients, and we know that support, resources, and guidance can be invaluable in that process. â€‹We offer a number of services to help clinicians further their training in DBT - please read more about them below.

​​

Clinical consultation is provided by Eliza Hecht, LCSW. Eliza is trained in DBT through Behavioral Tech, Marsha Linehan's DBT training outfit, and has pursued extensive DBT training and consultation from leading experts in the field. She is intensively trained in DBT-Prolonged Exposure for PTSD by Melanie Harned and in Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD through the Center for Anxiety and Behavior Therapy. Eliza has additional training in ACT and Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. She has received training in providing supervision and consultation from Alan Fruzzetti and Aditi Vijay.

DBT Consultation Team

An essential component of providing DBT is being on a consultation team. Our training team is an adherent DBT consultation team that also functions as group consultation/supervision. This team allows clinicians to learn and experience how an adherent consultation team functions, reap the benefits of peer consultation, and also have access to consultation from a more experienced DBT clinician. 

 

Our team also serves as the necessary team/mentorship requirement for new DBT clinicians to sign up for a Behavioral Tech/Psychwire DBT Foundational training. The path to quality DBT training can often be unclear and inaccessible and our intention is to help increase that access by offering affordable consultation and mentorship. 

​

Fee: $65/session. Scholarships available based on financial need. 

​

This team is for clinicians who have already completed a Behavioral Tech-approved DBT Foundational or are interested in beginning one. For clinicians interested in less intensive DBT training, we also offer small group DBT didactic consultation.

Small Group DBT Consultation

These consultation groups are intended for clinicians who may not be interested in pursuing comprehensive DBT training at the moment but would like to increase their knowledge of DBT and integrate some DBT-informed treatment into their practice. These sessions are flexible and more casual than consultation team. Clinicians bring questions they have (about cases, DBT in general, applying DBT principles, etc) and receive consultation on them from an experienced DBT clinician.

​

This is essentially group supervision. No prior DBT experience or training is required. 

​​

Fee: $65/session. Scholarships available based on financial need. 

​

If you are a clinician interested in small group supervision or consultation, please fill out the contact form here or send us an email at info@brooklynbehavioraltherapy.com.

​​

Individual Clinical Consultation

We also provide individual clinical consultation for those who are interested in deepening their clinical knowledge or getting more in-depth consultation on specific cases. We have limited lower-fee spots available for early career clinicians interested in learning DBT who might not otherwise have the resources to pursue intensive DBT supervision/consultation. If this applies to you, please mention it when you reach out. 

If you are a clinician interested in individual supervision or consultation, please fill out the contact form here or send us an email at info@brooklynbehavioraltherapy.com.
