DBT-INFORMED COUNSELING
Finding Balance Between Acceptance and Change
Life can bring overwhelming emotions, difficult relationships, and moments when it’s hard to know how to move forward.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical, evidence-based skills to help you better understand your emotions, navigate stressful situations, strengthen relationships, and respond to challenges with greater confidence.
—— The Four Core DBT Skill Areas ——
DBT provides a practical set of skills that can be applied in everyday life. In counseling, we focus on building and strengthening skills in these four key areas.
Mindfulness
Become more aware of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without immediately reacting.
Distress Tolerance
Learn ways to navigate difficult moments without making the situation harder.
Emotion Regulation
Better understand and manage emotions while developing healthier responses.
Interpersonal Effectiveness
Improve communication, set firm boundaries, and build healthier relationships.

A Personalized Approach To DBT Skills
I incorporate DBT-informed techniques into individual counseling, adapting the skills to your unique needs, goals, and circumstances.
I provide a modified, individual approach to DBT skills and do not offer the full standard DBT program, which typically includes group skills training.
