Clinical Assessment and Consultation
During our initial appointment, we will focus on learning more about your journey, identifying where you or your family could use the most assistance, and understanding your goals for treatment. We may also discuss options for DBT therapy, individual therapy, or nutrition counseling that would be most appropriate for your diagnosis, as well as supportive agencies that can provide family education support or substance use disorder treatment to assist with your needs.
Creating a Plan
We work together as a team to create a plan that addresses your family education support needs, education, and ensures you are ready to engage deeply in individual therapy to tackle the patterns or difficulties that may have led you to where you are today. Our goal is to truly understand what you need to help you find peace in the future. This process is known as the 'Pre-treatment' phase, which includes orientation to DBT therapy and our comprehensive program that also encompasses nutrition counseling and substance use disorder treatment.
Individual Therapy
Our individual therapy sessions utilize DBT therapy techniques focused on skill building to help you address the behaviors that continue to cause distress or emotional dysregulation in your life. We tailor our approach to each client, ensuring that it meets your unique needs. This framework is based on the evidence-based DBT model, aiming to address challenges related to Depressive Disorders, PTSD, Anxiety Disorders, Eating Disorders, BPD, and other mood disorders in a compassionate and open environment, whether in our center or online. Additionally, we offer family education support and nutrition counseling as part of a holistic approach, including substance use disorder treatment when necessary. Sessions are customized to each individual's needs.
Group Programs
We provide group programs for adolescents, parents, and adults that focus on learning new skills with others and building trusting relationships. These groups, which may incorporate elements of DBT therapy, are typically 90 minutes long and are available in-person and online. We offer a variety of days and times to fit your schedule, and we also provide family education support, individual therapy, nutrition counseling, and substance use disorder treatment as part of our comprehensive approach.
Family & Parental Education & Support
Parents can also attend family education support groups focused on DBT therapy and skill development, which will empower families to strengthen their relationships and make informed decisions together. Family members will learn the importance of role modeling the skills acquired to support their loved ones in successfully implementing new practices around mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness, which are essential components in substance use disorder treatment and individual therapy. Additionally, nutrition counseling can complement these efforts to promote overall well-being.
