Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Jeffersontown, KY
I use modified CBT, DBT and ACT in talk therapy.
If you’re living with neurodiversity, you may feel like you’re working twice as hard just to keep up. Deadlines sneak up, emails pile up, the house feels perpetually “almost” organized, and important tasks live in your head until they vanish. Over time, the challenges can turn into chronic stress, self-doubt, and relationship strain.
I work with neurodivergent adults and teens whose ADHD is impacting work performance, home responsibilities, and relationships. Many of my clients are capable, intelligent, and motivated—and also exhausted from masking, overcompensating, or relying on last-minute adrenaline to get things done.

Even in the 21st century, "having issues" still carries a stigma. Therapists are here to help you make your life better, but we are still not fully understood by the public. I'm guilty of not understanding dentists. I went to the dentist "only when" the pain was so bad I couldn't stand it, or "only when" I had to have a tooth yanked. Only in mid-life, after years of misery, did I understand dentists as being real doctors. Now, I respect the connection between healthy gums and healthy heart and I spare myself the prolonged anguish.

Many of the teens and adults I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or frustrated by patterns that seem to repeat in their lives, relationships, or work. Others are seeking greater clarity and understanding of emotional, behavioral, cognitive, or interpersonal challenges. Through psychotherapy and psychological testing, I help individuals better understand themselves, build on their strengths, and develop practical ways to move forward.

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.
