LOS ANGELES—Adult industry mental health support group Pineapple Support will host an eight-week online course designed to mitigate stress by helping participants manage their emotions. The online course, run by Pineapple Support therapist Sophie Graham, will focus on DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy) techniques to teach performers the skills necessary to regulate emotions in order to better cope with stress.
“Out of control emotions can make it hard to maintain friendships, romantic relationships and can even jeopardize our careers,” Graham noted. “Without the skills we need to cope with difficult emotions, it’s impossible to deal effectively with stressful or distressing situations that inevitably come up in our lives. This course will teach how to recognize, understand and regulate emotions to have more choices when it comes to managing day-to-day stressors and distressing events.”
