The DBT
Emotion Management Quiz

Question
Yes
No
It’s hard to calm myself down when I’m hurt or angry.    
There are things I do to help me get through the day that I wish I could stop doing.    
I do or say things in the heat of the moment that end up causing problems in relationships or at work.    
I sometimes wish I didn’t have any feelings at all -- having feelings is a problem.    
It seems like my emotions control me rather than the other way around.    

If you answered “Yes” to one or more of these questions, you might find Dialectical Behavior Therapy helpful. DBT offers the skills necessary for identifying, experiencing, and managing emotions. These are skills that can help you interact more effectively with yourself and with others. The Awakening Center, at 3322 N Ashland Ave. in Chicago, offers DBT Skills Training Groups.

To find out more, or to discuss whether DBT may be right for you, call Dr. Cindy Butler at the Awakening Center at 773-929-6262 or 773-744-0189.
