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.
If you feel undeserving and struggle with trusting others, frequently overreact and shut down emotionally, or use unhealthy coping mechanisms, then you may be among the millions of adults with unprocessed childhood trauma. Left untreated, unprocessed childhood trauma can negatively affect the present, often reaping havoc on relationships and one’s quality of life, but it doesn’t need to continue. Therapy can serve as the best tool for long-term recovery.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Are you exhausted from the relentless cycle of anxiety, shame, and guilt? Tired of obsessing over food and your body? Unsure what "healthy" even looks like anymore? It doesn’t have to stay this way. Imagine having more energy because your mind isn’t caught up in endless rumination and comparisons. What if your body felt like an ally instead of something to battle? What if you could meet yourself with acceptance and compassion? Imagine eating with freedom, ease, and genuine satisfaction.
