Sorry, but I gotta say this woman (can't even say, therapist) is totally unprofessional and unequipped, ill prepared and ignorant about conducting DBT. I'd insist on meeting the co leader before committing to this group. My only hope is that her co-leader is her mentor . . . .meaning the co leader has HER work cut out for her. I'd ask the woman how long ago she received the DBT training and how long she's actually done groups . . . as in how many freakin' years! Jeesh, this stuff makes me nuts.

Gotta say, InTherapy, that your description was priceless!
