Helping students become strong, capable and resilient
WE ARE A COMPREHENSIVE PSYCHOLOGY SERVICE FOCUSED ON
IMPROVING STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH & LEARNING OUTCOMES
DBT in Schools is unique in combining the best approaches from clinical psychology and school psychology.
We understand the challenges that young people face, in school and in life, and we are dedicated to helping them become strong, capable and resilient.
Promoting positive behaviour and mental health
With over 20 years of practicing DBT with adults Dr Amanda Johnson, along with Dr Cheree Murrihy, is excited to be bringing the DBT approach to Australian schools. DBT is gold-standard in achieving positive mental health outcomes.
Identifing barriers to learning
Mental health and learning are closely linked. DBT in Schools have combined the best approaches in mental health and psychological assessment to help understand the whole child, so barriers to learning can be broken down.
Creating safe positive school environments
We have a commitment to enhancing skills of teachers, parents and students to help make schools safe, positive learning environments.
More than 20 Years of Experience
DBT in Schools is under the umbrella of the Melbourne DBT centre which has a long standing reputation for quality care and improved mental health outcomes. Now, this quality is available to Victorian schools.
