Dialetical Behavioral Therapy ( DBT) is the approach I enjoy using most.
Are you a parent who has noticed your child/teen shutting you out and not really expressing anything, but they are visibly not okay? I am here to help! You might notice them struggling to control their reactions, feeling as if their emotions take over before they have a chance to think. They might continuously experience memories, triggers, and emotions that have surfaced unexpectedly, making it difficult for them to feel safe or trust others. They may appear as if nothing matters to them, like if they don’t find joy in anything and motivation is out of reach. They are worthy of healing even if they do not believe it to be true.

If you’re worn down by co-occurring mental health and substance-use concerns—or by layered diagnoses like anxiety and depression, PTSD, or borderline personality patterns—you don’t have to untangle this alone. I work especially with (1) neurodivergent adults feeling overwhelmed by transitions, trauma, and long-standing emotional strain; (2) people with addictions and/or in recovery who are navigating grief/loss, identity, and life after addiction.

Life can be a crazy rollercoaster feeling like there is no end only sharp turns and giant loops. You may feel stuck, unfulfilled, or alone even, which may then lead to feelings frustration, overwhelm, and confusion. A lot can happen when we feel out of control or like our true selves are silenced and ignored. Life becomes more complicated and each day can feel like a challenge.

I work with adults to address anxiety, stress, personality disorders, life transitions, and trauma through CBT, DBT, and Narrative Therapy.
My approach to therapy tends to be very flexible and fluid. I want to learn about you from you so we can work together to identify how you might benefit from support. I primarily use Narrative Therapy approaches but tend to weave in other approaches or frameworks to address the person and presentation at hand.

At Bright View Counseling we are breaking the traditional mold of talk therapy and counseling and bringing a new, brighter idea of what therapy could and should look like with our ‘Therapy With A Twist!’ approach. Our therapy approach is holistic, humanistic, and person-focused. We bring the power of the natural world into the therapeutic process. We take walks outside, participate in outdoor activities with clients, and integrate activities and games. We also get a helping paw from our office dog, Charlotte, who comes into sessions to provide a furry friend to hug, pet, and receive emotional support from.

I use a warm, strengths-based approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT), Gottman Method, and EMDR.
Are you feeling overwhelmed trying to juggle work, school, family, relationships, and self-care? Life can feel like a nonstop balancing act—work deadlines, family needs, school pressures, relationship ups and downs and somewhere in the middle, there’s you. Maybe your own well-being keeps getting pushed aside, and it’s starting to wear you down. You might be dealing with anxiety, stress, or that heavy feeling of being stuck in the same place. As a former school counselor, teacher, and a mother myself, I understand how heavy life can feel when you’re pouring into everyone else and have nothing left for yourself.

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.
