DBT STEPS-A Q&A Session #2 with Jim and Lizz Mazza

 

About the Event: 

Have you been watching the Mazza's live or online videos as they support their kids and your kids in developing DBT, otherwise known as, critical life skills? Do you have any questions about their lessons might translate into your own home? A school setting? Have you read their book or attended their past training on DBT in schools? Well, don't miss the opportunity to ask whatever questions you may have of them when they do live Q&A sessions on May 19th and June 16th, 2020.
 

  • If you want to submit your questions beforehand, there will be an opportunity to do so on the registration site.
  • Registration is required for the live Q&A event, unlike the live and recorded Youtube lessons. See registration links below
  • Audience: Parents & educators.

Join us for 1-hour, interactive Q&A sessions with Doctors Jim & Lizz Mazza about their online, live-streamed 16-lesson DBT STEPS-A curriculum to teach the basics of emotional regulation and specific skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness—essential skills at any time, but even more critical during COVID-19.
