Some common techniques that I use are Motivational Interviewing, CBT, DBT, Solution Focused Therapy, and Somatic Therapy.
Too often we find ourselves stressed out, burned out, overwhelmed, and flat out tired. All too often, we seek an "escape" to temporarily solve our problems, which only leads us to seek out the same or similar outlets to give us a boost, many of which are more damaging than helpful. What's more, many of us are only brushing the surface of a bigger issue left unresolved. If you're ready to manifest lasting changes in your life and seek healthy, safe, alternative methods to mental health recovery, you are in the right place!

Do you hide parts of yourself that make others feel uncomfortable? Do you carry the shame of being judged for your sexuality, addiction, HIV status, or more? These are some of the hardest things to talk about but it’s even harder going through it alone. You deserve a space where you don't have to translate your experience or defend your truth—where someone actually understands what you're going through. If you have never felt safe, accepted, or understood, I feel your pain, because I have been there.

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.
