New DDP Supervision and DDP Skills Practice Groups are starting in January 2022 and are open to new attendees who have completed DDP Level One.
Dafna Lender, Certified DDP Trainer, Consultant and Practitioner based in the USA, will be facilitating both groups. They are going ahead online using Zoom and attendees can be from any country.
The DDP Supervision Group starts from January 14, 2022. It will meet monthly and is for people who have attended DDP Level One and/or Two and “who wish to consult on a case and get DDP focused guidance and ideas of how to use DDP with their case.
This is a 2 hour group, where you will be able to observe other participants’ cases as well as present your own. You do not have to show a video of your case, you can present the case orally and we will brainstorm together.”
There are up to 8 dates available, January 14, February 11, March 18, April 8, May 20, June 17, July 15 and August 12, 2022. It will run 6-8am PST, 7-9am Mountain, 8-10am Central, 9-11am Eastern, 2-4pm GMT, 3-5pm Central Europe Time. Dafna is offering several attendance packages, depending on number of meetings, presentation and observation time. They cost from $350-$700 USD, with a drop-in observer fee of $60 for 2 hours.

The DDP Skills Practice Group starts from January 14, 2022, as well. It meets once a month in order to practice skills introduced in DDP Level One.
This group “is a great bridge to get you ready for DDP Level Two and the DDP Practitioner practicum. There are 6 different “skills” that will be practiced in role play groups in each 1 hour 15 minutes session.”
