A lot of people asked about DBT and I’ve given the same answer: It has the best skills group I’ve seen

But skills groups are not necessarily the best approach to group psychotherapy

I am a Group Therapy Enthusiast, so please get into the weeds with me about group types 🧵 Psychoeducation groups: which are essentially classrooms that teach about psychology or mental health. These types of groups can be the lowest investment, and while many hear exactly what they need to transform their lives, many consider these groups as having the lowest payoff.

Today, I’d like to say a few words about the psychology of killing.

If you have killed or murdered (there is a difference between the two), or if you are a therapist treating this moral injury who doesn't know what it's like to take a life, this thread may be for you.

🧵 Before we travel too far into the pain of this human experience, I want to make one thing clear: it is within our power to create meaning from the darkest moments of our lives and emerge stronger, wiser, and committed to a path of restoration, redemption, and shared humanity.
