How Our Practice Works
Much of our practice is based on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). This is a treatment that was initially created to help high risk individuals such as those who are suicidal or might behave in other ways that might harm themselves. There are several components to DBT, including individual therapy, DBT skills training in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal relationships and middle path skills which help patients balance acceptance and change. DBT Skills coaching is also available between sessions and weekly group sessions involving the family of patients is available. Learn more about the DBT Skills Groups we offer.
Group Therapy & DBT Skills Groups
Group therapy can also be an important element to DBT treatment. In addition to our multi-family DBT skills groups, we also offer
