Services
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a type of therapy that focuses on skills acquisition, as well as individual therapy, in order to help you move towards the life you want to lead.
DBT treats emotion regulation and focuses on developing or strengthening skills to improve emotional, behavioral and cognitive stability.
Sometimes, we behave in ways to reduce or escape emotional discomfort because it's the only way we know how.
These behaviors can serve to make things worse even when we're not trying to do so.
There are times in life when everyone can benefit from outside perspective or assistance in navigating his or her path.
Our therapists and interns hope to be able to join with you to move towards the life you want to lead.
