Usually, yes. In-person therapy in places like NYC, SF, LA, Boston run $200-400+ per session easily. Grouport's pricing is the same whether you're in Manhattan or Montana, which means significant savings if you're located in an urban city. Grouport’s Individual therapy sessions average $103/session and our group sessions are between $25-$35/session which are both way less than one in-person individual therapy or group therapy session in most expensive cities. You're also saving commute time and money, no $20 Uber rides or subway fare to get to appointments.

It varies a lot. Grouport's individual therapy costs less than traditional in-person therapy, which typically runs $150-$300+ per session depending on where you live. For example, Grouport’s individual therapy sessions average $103/session. Online group therapy is more affordable, Grouport's group therapy is $25- $35/session or $140/month total, that’s less than the cost of one in person individual therapy session. What surprises a lot of people is that self-pay rates are usually cheaper than going through insurance after you factor in copays and deductibles. Online platforms often cost less than in-person because there's no office overhead to pay for. Not to mention, Grouport offers discounts when you combine sessions together or are doing more than one session per week.

That's exactly when therapy matters most. Relationships often improve as anger becomes manageable. Aside from individual work which is typically done in individual therapy and group therapy, sometimes couples and family therapy is also needed to address the impact that anger has had on relationships.

Military trauma is well understood. It’s often helpful to have a therapist who understands military culture and combat experiences. Evidence based trauma therapy like CPT, PE, EMDR work for combat trauma. Specific issues addressed can include guilt about actions during combat, grief for lost comrades, difficulty transitioning from combat readiness to civilian life, and relationship problems after deployment. Veteran-focused approaches exist.

Managed is more accurate than cured. Most people learn to live well with anxiety rather than eliminate it entirely. Skills learned in therapy provide tools to manage flare-ups quickly before they escalate.

Grouport's rates are more affordable than traditional therapy. Grouport’s Online group therapy is the most budget friendly option. Grouport's individual therapy averaging $103/session is 50-60% below typical rates, online group therapy averaging $32/session provides evidence-based depression treatment more affordably. You can use HSA/FSA funds for 20-30% tax savings, and submit superbills for insurance reimbursement. Investing in treatment often saves money long-term.

You can learn the basics from books or online resources, but actually applying them when you're in crisis is way harder without support. DBT skills are simple to understand but difficult to use consistently when you're emotionally overwhelmed—which is exactly when you need them. A therapist or DBT skills group provides accountability, coaching through difficult moments, help troubleshooting when skills aren't working, and support when you're struggling to practice. That said, if you’re not ready to do therapy or you prefer a self paced program, or you’re looking for additional accountability in between sessions self-guided DBT can definitely help. Grouport has a self-guided DBT program designed for people who want to learn the skills on their own timeline or are looking for additional support in between sessions.

Definitely, DBT has a whole set of anger skills. DBT anger skills include opposite action (acting kind when angry instead of attacking), check the facts (figuring out if your anger fits the situation), problem-solving (addressing the actual problem fueling your anger), pros and cons (evaluating consequences before acting on anger), and DEAR MAN (expressing anger assertively rather than aggressively). You also work on reducing vulnerability to anger through self-care (PLEASE skills—sleep, exercise, healthy eating, managing illness). DBT doesn't say anger is bad, but it teaches you to express it effectively rather than destructively. Anger is valid information about boundary violations or injustice, rage that destroys relationships isn't useful.

It’s designed for adults and older teens. Younger children need more developmentally appropriate skill building. However, many parents learn DBT skills themselves and teach their children in a style that makes sense for their learning and promotes consistent practice.

Since the program is a uniform program, that gives you immediate access to a years worth of therapist recorded videos, worksheets and extensive reading manuals that can be downloaded, a community forum that you can partake in, and lifetime access, it’s a one time fee that grants you lifetime access to it. As such, there aren’t any refunds we provide for the program. For this one time fee, you are getting tremendous value so that you can build effective DBT skills.
