Hi there, I'm Charity! With all the challenges life presents, coupled with the recent upheaval of our daily existence, prioritizing one's mental health is now more essential than ever. As we continue to adapt as a society to a "new normal", at times we may feel overwhelmed by a world that is constantly in a state of flux. Fear, anxiety, or a sense of powerlessness may sometimes engulf us and our ability to cope with a world that seems to lack consistency and stability.

I can offer CBT, DBT, EMDR, ACT, and self compassion work.
Struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, feeling disconnected, burn out, and other life pains can be entirely too tough to manage alone. If you are a person of color, navigating these experiences may feel more isolating when you've never been taught to express them or never connected to resources. Whether you know your exact triggers or are completely unaware of the source of your discomfort we can all benefit from a space to be heard, expand our coping toolbox and experience the warmth of self care. Often times, challenges with mental health and psychological pain create feelings of unsafety in our own mind.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists
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.
