Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy, first developed in the 1980s by Marsha M. Linehan, to treat patients suffering from borderline personality disorder. Since then, DBT’s use has broadened and now it is regularly employed as part of a treatment plan for people struggling with behaviors or emotions they can't control. This can include eating disorders, substance abuse, self-harm, and more. DBT is a skills-based approach that focuses on helping people increase their emotional and cognitive control by learning the triggers that lead to unwanted behaviors. Once triggers are identified, DBT teaches coping skills that include mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. A therapist specializing in DBT will help you to enhance your own capabilities, improve your motivation, provide support in-the-moment, and better manage your own life with problem-solving strategies. Think this approach might work for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s DBT specialists today.

My practice has always been focused on the BGLTQ+ Community, especially trans & gender diverse people, and polyamorous people. I have specialized training working with the trans community for 20+ years, and am pleased with how much the mental health field has advanced in providing respectful care. I tend to see a lot of geeky and neurodivergent people. (Please note if contacting me: it will save time if you include your insurance company and whether HMO or PPO. Not currently seeing couples.)

If you find yourself struggling with difficult relationships, rollercoaster emotions, sense of self/identity, practicing self-love, or learning how to feel comfortable in your own body after trauma, I encourage you to reach out. My team helps people learn how to be present and learn skills to handle the curveballs that life throws. Our clients are often individuals who have experienced trauma (physical, emotional, sexual, spiritual, racial, neglect).

I work with adults experiencing difficulty with anxiety and mood disorders. They want to step out of their comfort zone, use their thoughts and strengths to address life's changes and cultivate interpersonal resolutions. More importantly, they are willing to collaborate to bring healing and wellness into their lives. As a result, they are willing to do the work, offer themselves grace as they navigate life, and understand that change will take time.

Much of my experience is with clients healing from complex, chronic trauma. I also specialize in assisting those living with symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, mood disorders, and ADHD. I have extensive experience working with children, teens, and young adults. However, I am more than happy to work with anyone with any background, symptomatology, or diagnosis. With the goal of meeting people where they are, I will gladly work with clients at any point in their healing journey.
