LOS ANGELES — Pineapple Support will host a free, weekly online support group for performers wishing to improve interpersonal relationships.
The group, "Interpersonal Effectiveness," will take place over seven weeks and will be led by Pineapple Support therapist Sophia Graham. The group will focus on using dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) techniques. The first meeting will be held Tomorrow at 2 p.m. EDT.
"This course invites you to reflect on the myths that hold you back in relationships and teaches you skills to be more assertive," said Graham. "We will talk about how to prepare for difficult conversations by creating scripts and anticipating pushback. We’ll be using DBT techniques to develop the tools and strategies you can use to navigate all types of relationships in your life."
"Being able to approach difficult conversations with confidence, experience, and knowledge can be a real game changer," said Pineapple Support founder Leya Tanit. "This support group is open to any performer that wants to learn some flexible and scientifically-supported DBT skills that will help you to have clearer communication and more fulfilling relationships."
The group will meet every Thursday at the same time, with the final session on Nov. 17.
