I specialize in DBT> DBT is an evidence based practice that has been found to be effective in helping individuals who struggle with intense, out of control emotions, chaotic relationships and impulsivity. DBT is helpful for anyone who wants to make changes in their life, and is often used for those who suffer from depression, trauma, substance abuse, suicidal ideation, anxiety or self harm. In addition to containing elements of Cognitive Therapy, there are components of compassion and validation added in that help one find balance in the dialectic of acceptance and change. Anyone can benefit from the skills training. Skills Training consists of four units, Core Mindfulness, Emotion Regulation, Interpersonal Effectiveness and Distress Tolerance. I am extensively trained in DBT, and have over ten years of experience. I am very passionate about helping others learn the skills and, build "a life worth living". I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (Comprehensive and Informed), EMDR and Prolonged Exposure Therapy for Trauma and Sexual Abuse Survivors, and PTSD. Online and telephone counseling including Skills Training are available as determined by suitability.
