I believe that we could heal the world if we would only first seek to heal ourselves. Some of the most life changing moments come when we decide to sit with our discomfort and ride that wave to healing. Though the pain and anguish can make these moments feel unconquerable, taking the steps toward your own healing allows these obstacles to become a period of transformation, growth, or liberation. Together we can explore your journey and the answers that you hold within.

Ever wish you could just feel better? There’s nothing terribly wrong, but activities you used to enjoy are no longer working for you. It’s hard to stay focused with all the worrying and repetitive thoughts. Maybe the days are all laced with a little sadness. You’re not sure you can remember ever really feeling good, but it seems to be getting worse. Maybe you’ve started drinking, eating, shopping, or smoking more than you would like. All your will power just can’t quiet your mind or stop the yearning for something or someone you know is not good for you. That's a lot of downward energy ... same is true when you start getting better!

In today's world many of us find ourselves struggling with emotional overload. As life becomes inundated by negative experiences through media representation and personal experience. We may notice a loss of motivation or even possibly a loss of positive experiences. Eventually we may loose hope in who we are and who we wish to become. When overloaded by strong emotions, hopelessness begins to creep in. Hopelessness can feel unbearable as it restricts functioning and ability to enjoy life. Our happiness and excitement can quickly become extinguished by the anger, fear, sorrow, and intense sadness we feel. I have found myself caught.

Sometimes, life is unpredictable. Before we know it, we can end up in a hole that appears too big to climb out of. This is particularly the case with our traumatic experiences. Whether it is big or little, traumatic experiences carry with us throughout our lives, creating lasting impressions on who we are and what we are capable of. Luckily, we have developed ways to overcome and climb out of the hole.

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.
