The following is a list of specialized services that are offered through collaborations with local treatment centers and providers. Other than the Equine Assisted therapy program, all of these programs are offered on the TCU campus. Each of these services are operated by staff of the local center/providers, and TCU is just the host site. Cost of these services are beyond the benefits of tuition, but many of these services include stipends from gracious donors and organizations that help cover the costs (some of these programs as fully covered at no additional costs to students). In addition, many of the providers accept insurance. Thus, please make sure that you discuss the stipends/insurance coverage/cost with each provider. Due to having donor-support, each program has a limited number of slots and availability will vary.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy

“Restoration is a counseling practice in Fort Worth bringing DBT to TCU. DBT is a treatment that has been deemed the gold standard psychological treatment for a wide range of emotional dysfunction such as substance dependence, depression, post-traumatic stress, and eating disorders. “Dialectical” Behavior Therapy means the synthesis or integration of opposites. Developed in 1980, the treatment approach intentionally exposes participants to “acceptance-oriented” and “change-oriented” skills. This is to help them confront the fear and change the emotional response patterns that trigger harmful behavior. Ultimately, Restoration exists to see lives restored and DBT is a powerful therapy to begin that process.”

The Counseling and Mental Health Center is proud to collaborate with Restoration to provide Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for TCU students. Our DBT program consists of weekly groups and individuals sessions. For more information contact Dr. Wood at e.c.wood@tcu.edu .
