Are you going through a challenging time? Do you feel overwhelmed by intense emotions and have difficulty to focus and make important decision? Your relationship is not working and you stuck in the conflicts? You are not alone and help is available. Let's start our conversation... Together we will take a careful look at your situation and the ways you are coping. We will try to find out what works and what does not. With compassion, attention and curiosity, we will look for solutions and changes that will help you move forward.

You will learn how to identify and use your resourcefulness to make new steps. You will learn how to manage your emotions and set and meet goals without being stressed. Therapy will allow you to free yourself from painful emotions, disturbing thoughts and destructive behaviour and enjoy your precious life.

Jo-Anne Beggs
Registered Social Worker, RSW
Verified
I've found that EMDR, Schema-focused therapy and
DBT
skills training are effective approaches to resolving trauma.
"People are doing the best they can". Absolutely. And, given life experience, skills, supports & lack thereof. Yet, despite our best efforts, situations past or current, perceptions, emotions, ways of coping can be more than what we can effectively navigate alone. We hit ruts. Life isn't what we want it to be. Therapy can help us to understand the issues & actively work toward desired changes. To create "a life worth living", of your own design. Authentically you. If you want positive change, if you're ready to work diligently toward change, if you're ready to "get down & dirty", in partnership, let's talk!
B&C Health: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
PhD , 8148200
Verified
We are excited to be able to offer a comprehensive
Dialectical
Behavior Therapy (
DBT
) program for the adolescents and families in our community.
Dialectical
Behavior Therapy is an evidence-based program designed to guide individuals from enormous suffering (e.g., thinking of suicide, self-harm, intense mood swings, difficult relationships) to a "life worth living." Many people struggling with these difficult problems have trouble finding success in more traditional therapy (e.g., CBT, talk therapy) or make repeated visits to inpatient facilities.
DBT
programs are set up to break through barriers to treatment and help individuals significantly improve within six months to one year of treatment. This is achieved through structured sessions, increased availability of therapists outside of session time (by phone), and high levels of commitment from the therapist, teen, families, and the team of
DBT
therapists.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Counsellors
Dialectical behaviour Therapy (DBT) is the treatment most closely associated with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Counsellors practice DBT in both individual and group sessions. The therapy combines elements of CBT to help with regulating emotion through distress tolerance and mindfulness. The goal of Dialectical behaviour Therapy is to alleviate the intense emotional pain associated with BPD. Its core assumption is that change and acceptance are intertwined. We typically think of our efforts to change things as emerging out of non-acceptance. We either decide to accept things as they are or we seek to change: through DBT it's not a case of change or acceptance, but resolving the conflicts to allow for self-acceptance and constructive change.
