I specialize in ADHD and often use Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT) strategies to help patients build practical skills.
Hello! I’m Elliott, PMHNP & owner of Northwoods Psychiatry. I carry a particular passion for diagnosing and treating ADHD but also treat patients experiencing many mental health concerns, including bipolar disorder, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. I believe we never forget the people who were there for us when we asked for help. Working in psychiatry, I deeply appreciate the opportunity to be that person for someone else. It’s an incredible honor when someone places their trust in me and allows me to support them, especially knowing how difficult it can feel to open up to a stranger. That’s something I never take for granted.

Psychiatrist, MD

Denver, CO 80209
I established Denver Psychiatric Clinic to add needed space for individuals to focus on issues affecting their mental well-being. Anxiety, mood instability, depression, relationship stress, and general dissatisfaction are often what bring people into treatment but typically represent only the surface layer of why we experience distress the way we do. The purpose of my practice is to create space for exploration of any and all sources of that distress through medication and/or therapy. My objective for each patient is that such exploration facilitates improvement through an increased understanding of themselves.

I take a thoughtful, collaborative approach to psychiatry that goes beyond quick medication management. While medication can help, real progress starts with understanding you- your patterns, stressors, and goals. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood concerns, including those who feel high-functioning but overwhelmed. My approach integrates medication with practical, evidence-based strategies in focused, intentional sessions. My goal is to help you feel more stable, clear, and like yourself again.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Psychiatrists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.

Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behavior and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.

What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behavior, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioral change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behavior; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
