Oh I agree. I was basing my response on what I know about how DBT is supposed to be run and my assumptions there. :-/
I really hope it didn't happen publicly. DBT groups are different from traditional therapy groups. Therapy really happens one-on-one and then there's a skills group and the skills group is more focused on skills practiced and teaching new skills, and reinforcing the skills. All the other "stuff" like personal target behaviors are for individual therapy (according to the rules of DBT group - you're not supposed to be in group if you aren't being seen one on one).
