RO- DBT is a treatment for clients who struggle with high self-control that negatively impacts their ability to connect and interact with others. Our society tends to praise overcontrol, however when it goes too far it can lead to loneliness, social isolation, and the feeling of having friends but not feeling connected to them. This 30-week class seeks to support emotionally over-controlled adults who struggle with loneliness, perfectionism, and authentic connection and teaches important skills focused on being more receptive, flexible, and placing value on social connectedness. Join our 30-week class at any time, $75 per week.

Drawing from Attachment and Trauma informed therapy models ( DBT, EFT, EMDR, ERCEM, PIT) it is my mission to help couples create a new healthy coupleship.
Is your marriage suffering? Has your relationship been negatively affected by addiction to porn, sex, drugs, alcohol, gaming, spending, or eating disorders? Or affairs? Or traumatic experience, such as sexual abuse, and the symptoms that linger – dissociation, depression, anxiety/panic, etc.? Does your partner or someone you love have a problem? Have your tried everything with no lasting results? I can help. In a supportive, confidential, non-judgmental environment, using effective research-based methods, I help couples heal their relationship and create a new, healthy, mutually satisfying, mutually respectful coupleship.
Is used to treat mood disorders as well as those who need to change patterns of behavior that are not helpful, such as self-harm, suicidal ideation, and substance abuse. This approach works towards helping people increase their emotional and cognitive regulation by learning about the triggers that lead to reactive states and helping to assess which coping skills to apply in the sequence of events, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help avoid undesired reactions. DBT assumes that people are doing their best but lack the skills needed to succeed, or are influenced by positive reinforcement or negative reinforcement that interferes to function appropriately.

Life is full of messy bits, sometimes these are unforeseen issues that pop up out of our control and sometimes they are a product of our own design. Regardless, in a culture where we must present as put together, in control, etc., it gets a little hard to trudge the water. If we aren’t careful this can lead to emotional, behavioral, interpersonal, and self dysregulation.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Support Groups
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.
