Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Tallahassee, FL

If you're here, you're looking for some kind of help. Some people go months or years harboring incredibly challenging emotions and experiences before thinking about counseling. I'm glad you're here and looking for help. Most of the people I've worked with have struggled with depression, suicidal ideation, or substance use - sometimes even all three problems at once. Most people seeking therapy want a non-judgmental professional who can facilitate an impactful therapeutic relationship.
