It’s Mental Health Awareness Day! Although it is our job to see to the mental wellbeing of others, please remember to prioritize your mental health as well. It’s nearly impossible to help others heal when you are not taking proper care of yourself.

Recently, The Well Woman team attended a DBT training led by Dr. Kimberly Vay, LPC, CPCS from Peachtree Comprehensive Health! Dialectical Behavior Therapy is a cognitive-behavioral treatment that emphasizes balancing acceptance and change. It is particularly useful for individuals with emotional regulation difficulties and focuses on teaching skills in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. With DBT being one of the main treatment modalities used at The Well Woman, we were excited for the opportunity to increase our knowledge and skills in this area. We also love any chance we get to come together as a team to learn something new! Thank you again to Dr. Vay for a fantastic session! #PeachtreeDBT #TheWellWoman #DialecticalBehaviorTherapy #DBTTraining #MentalHealthProfessionals #MentalHealthTraining
