This study is looking at whether a group program called DBT-P (Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Pregnancy) can help pregnant women better manage their emotions. DBT-P teaches emotional skills specifically for pregnancy and life with a new baby. Researchers want to see if improving these skills reduces stress and improves heart rate. You might be able to join if you are a woman between 18 and 45 years old, at least 12 weeks pregnant with one baby, speak English, and have a high score on a test for emotion dysregulation (88 or above). The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status. Success would mean participants show improved emotion regulation and heart rate.
