Teneo is designed to provide the best benefits of family therapy and combine this with family advocacy. In a nutshell, a family advocate works to implement the family training in real life home situations. In a way, they are a Super Nanny, mentoring both parents and youth.
Teneo has seen a need in the community to start a DBT group for adolescent girls. DBT stands for Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sound complicated? Well, it is broken down in this podcast so as to explain why it is so important. DBT is used to treat trauma, chemical dependency, mood disorders, and even personality disorders. It is also been shown to be successful in treating those who may have not enjoyed or responded to other types of therapy.
