Q. Do you offer group rates?

Yes! We provide a discount for groups through our Group License. This license allows you to purchase as many memberships as you need through one transaction and gives each individual access to their own account and the ability to earn CEs. It’s designed for groups in which each person should have their own login with the ability to go through the entire course on their own.

Q. Do I need prior knowledge of DNA-V or ACT to do this course?

No previous experience with either model is required. This course introduces the DNA-V model in a practical, easy-to-follow way and gives you the skills, knowledge, and tools to begin using it with young clients no matter your therapeutic background.

Q. How is DNA-V different from ACT?

DNA-V shares many core aspects with ACT, like psychological flexibility processes, relational frame theory, and the importance of mindfulness, acceptance, and values. However, it also incorporates explicitly developmental concepts like attachment theory and play as well as positive psychology aspects of thinking and problem-solving.

Q. What type of clients can benefit from DNA-V?

Because DNA-V is a process-based therapy, the tools you will learn in this course can be applied to a broad range of young people, including pre-teens, teens, and young adults. You will learn skills that you can use with young people who have been given specific diagnoses (for instance, depression, anxiety, OCD) as well as those exhibiting behavioral issues, family or relationship issues, or trauma.

Q. Parents are sometimes included in my work with a young client. Will this course address that?

Social context is an important part of the DNA-V model, so an entire module is devoted to our “social view,” and it is incorporated in other lessons throughout the course.
