I have received training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Welcome! Do you or your child struggle with managing your emotions, low self-esteem, or poor impulse control? Do you or your child have self-sabotaging or self-harming behaviors? I work with children as young as 5, teens, and adults. I help my clients become the best version of themselves. I teach coping skills to help clients manage stress and the hardships that life gives us. My goal is to give you a safe, non-judgmental space to process your emotions.

" What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us. " Ralph Waldo Emerson. I believe human beings are remarkably resilient to life circumstances. Each of us face obstacles to happiness that life brings our way. Throughout each human's lifetime he/she will face stress, grief, loss, disappointments, life changes, sadness, and challenges that stretch limits, question our place in this world, and prompt us to seek wisdom and guidance. To reach that goal, I implement Mindfulness, CBT, Boundaries, DBT, Self Esteem, Relaxation techniques, and reading recommendations as part of therapy.

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.
