Just Survivors was created to meet the somatic needs of someone carrying trauma.  While it has long been known yoga is a useful tool for survivors to release traumatic stress, this offering takes yoga out of a fitness venue and into a space that is extremely sensitive to limiting potential triggers. While a yoga practice isn’t “therapy,” it is hoped that these sessions will be therapeutic to all who attend in helping them listen to what their body has to say and maybe even restore a useful somatic relationship. All attendees will be gifted a journal and the last 15 minutes of our time together will be used for quiet reflection.

Every first Saturday of the month at 1 - 2:15pm

• What is DBT?

DBT stands for Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, which was founded by psychologist Marsha Linehan. DBT teaches emotion regulation skills, interpersonal communication skills, distress tolerance, and mindfulness skills.

• What does the DBT program entail?

For adults, it’s a 1-year commitment to participating in 2.5 hours of group therapy once a week and 1 hour of individual therapy with your DBT therapist. Groups are comprised of 8-10 individuals. You’ll need to purchase the DBT manual, or a digital copy can be provided. You’ll utilize the worksheets which include diary cards, and you’ll learn skills to practice between sessions.

• How would I benefit from participating in DBT program?

You will learn skills to work through difficult emotions, improve relationships, have longer periods of stability, reduce risk of rehospitalizations or incarceration, improve your ability to be in your wise mind.

• How do I qualify for DBT program?

You can refer yourself to the program or your therapist can complete the external referral form. Once our admins have received the referral form, they will contact you to schedule with one of our DBT therapists. That therapist will complete a Diagnostic Assessment with you, as well as other assessments Department of Human Services requires for DBT adherent program. Prior authorizations are dependent on an individual’s insurance coverage.

Wednesday 11 AM-1:30 PM (Adults in Maple Grove office), and Thursdays 11 AM-1:30 PM (Adults virtual). Other days, times, and specialty groups will be added as the need and Therapist availability arises.

• What if I’m interested in DBT but Harmony Mental Health doesn’t currently offer a group that fits my availability or my needs?

Please add your name and contact info to our waitlist. We need a minimum of 8 participants to start a group. Once we have gained enough interested participants to start a group, you’ll be contacted. We aim to have groups that meet your needs. Therefore, if you’re interested in group for BIPOCs only or Trans folkx only, we want to honor those needs.

• Please note: If you have state funded insurance, such as Medicaid or PMAP plans, you would not be able to continue seeing your outpatient therapist. Most commercial/employer funded insurance won’t pay for outpatient therapy once a client is in DBT program but some commercial plans do make exception. Please check with your insurance for covered benefits. Out of State insurances will not be accepted for DBT due to most out of State insurances consider 9 hours a week to qualify as DBT Intensive Outpatient Program, which our program is not. We do not take Cigna as an insurance for this program because their system does not recognize it unless its from a hospital setting.
