While self-control can be a good thing, exercising excessive self-control or “overcontrol” can impair functioning and is associated with low social connectedness, rigidity, risk aversion, loneliness, and perfectionism. Many people who are overcontrolled learn to hide their emotions to avoid feeling vulnerable. Too much self-control contributes to more complex conditions, including chronic anxiety, depression, restrictive eating disorders, and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.
Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT) is a state-of-the-art behavioral treatment designed to support individuals exhibiting overcontrol by targeting three core areas: building close and supportive social connections, increasing openness to new experiences, and improving flexible thinking.
New Patients: The program is open to patients new to the Child Mind Institute, including those with an outside provider. These patients will participate in our pre-screening assessment with treatment recommendations. Full diagnostic evaluations are available for those who also wish to receive individual therapy or other services we offer.
Current Patients: Will also participate in the pre-screening assessment and work with their individual providers.
Skills Class Cost: $250 per 90-minute session
Individual Treatment Cost: Clinician’s hourly rate
Pre-screening Assessment Cost: To ensure an appropriate fit, we will conduct a one-hour assessment billed at the clinician’s hourly rate.
