I am a DBT - LBC Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist, and use adherent Dialectical Behavior Therapy, as well as other protocol-based interventions, to help clients manage intense emotions and change problematic behaviors. An ideal match for treatment here is someone who has already worked hard at other types of therapy and is frustrated that hard-earned insight hasn't helped them change! Knowing WHY we do things is important; still, insight doesn't always help change intense emotions, stop problem behaviors, or help us focus on life's experiences.
I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), having worked with both the informed and adherent model of care for over 20 years. All four components of adherent DBT treatment are offered. Adult and Multi-Family Skills Groups of teens and their parents are offered both mornings and evenings most days of the week.
In addition, I work with parents who are struggling to help their complicated children reach milestones. Foundational parenting workshops are offered each month. Additionally, we offer weekly aftercare groups providing ongoing support and education for parents in need. Please feel free to call for more specific information.
