Please note, I'm only accepting new individuals for DBT treatment.
Therapy is a unique partnership where you develop a relationship with your clinician, whose responsibility is to facilitate your overall healing process. This process involves me providing you with a sense of safety, helping you gain a better sense of accountability and responsibility to grow and function in the manner that would serve you best.
I want to make sure that you understand who your best self is and learn to take action to find that alignment. I'm here for you and happy to listen and guide you through your story. The question is, are you ready to partner with me and begin the next chapter?
