The Decider: 32 Skills
The Decider Skills use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) to teach participants skills to recognise their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, allowing them to monitor and manage their own emotions and mental health. CBT and DBT both have an impressive evidence base, proving they are effective with a range of different mental health challenges. The skills were designed to enable participants to make effective changes to help manage distress, regulate emotion, increase mindfulness, promote effective communication and help to live a more skilful, less impulsive life.
How We Do It
We have distilled complex psychological theory into highly effective, evidence based skills that are engaging and memorable. The Decider Skills are delivered in an original and fun style that makes them easy to learn. The demonstrations bring the skills to life.
Each skill has its own evidence base, client handout, visual and prop. Each skill is taught in a discuss-demonstrate-discuss format.
The Decider Skills will enable you to make effective and positive life changes. We have simplified complex theory into user-friendly, practical, memorable, and effective skills.
