Evidence‑Based Skills for Real‑Life Emotional Regulation
Decider Skills Courses
The decider skills courses are an initiative that is being rolled out through NHS Highland. The Courses use CBT (Cognitive behavioural therapy) and DBT (Dialectical behavioral therapy) techniques as accessible tools that support wellbeing, resilience and positive behaviour change.
The skills will help you to:
- Understand and name emotions
- Manage distress and reduce impulsive behaviour
- Improve communication and relationships
- Build confidence and resilience
There are 2 Skills Courses
We run a graduate course for an hour monthly for those who have completed the 32 skills. These are run on:
Am Fasgadh, Portree, the last Monday of each month in Portree at 10 am
An Drochaid, at the Light House building in Kyle, the last Tuesday of each month at 1pm.
