Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a structured form of psychotherapy designed to help people who struggle with intense emotions and behaviors that interfere with their daily lives.
It teaches individuals to become more aware of their emotions, learn to tolerate distress without harmful reactions, regulate emotional responses, and improve communication.
Originally developed to treat borderline personality disorder, DBT has expanded to benefit many conditions, including anxiety, depression, complex trauma and PTSD, and substance use.
By focusing on skill-building and balancing acceptance with change, DBT supports lasting emotional growth and improved quality of life for those facing complex mental health challenges. It is often delivered through a combination of individual therapy, group skills training, and coaching for real-time support.
The four modules of DBT provide a clinical framework to relieve emotional distress by fostering awareness, acceptance, and adaptive responses to internal turmoil.
Originally designed for BPD, DBT helps manage intense emotions, reduce self-harming behaviors, and improve emotional control. It has strong evidence for reducing suicidality and hospitalizations through coping and interpersonal effectiveness.
DBT addresses PTSD by stabilizing emotional distress and teaching coping strategies to tolerate trauma-related triggers. It is effective for managing long-term trauma responses, promoting emotional awareness, and strengthening relationships.
DBT can treat depression by teaching skills to regulate negative emotions and reduce rumination, encouraging engagement with the present moment and healthier behavioral responses.
DBT encourages mindfulness to reduce worry and emotional escalation, helping clients stay grounded in the present moment. This, along with distress tolerance, helps individuals overcome anxiety-provoking situations without avoidance or panic.
We offer advanced treatments integrated with DBT, providing hope for those facing complex mental health challenges, including Complex Trauma and PTSD, Treatment-Resistant Depression, and Chronic Addiction.
DBT with medication improves treatment outcomes for complex cases by addressing both the biological and behavioral aspects of hard-to-treat conditions. Medication helps acute symptoms while DBT equips individuals with skills to manage emotions and reduce harmful behaviors.
DBT paired with ketamine therapy supports rapid symptom relief in treatment-resistant conditions, while DBT skills provide long-term tools for emotional and crisis management. This combination sustains recovery by integrating biological and behavioral treatment.
TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions essential for mood regulation, priming the brain for change. Combined with DBT, this approach targets both neurological and behavioral aspects, enhancing emotional control and restructuring thought patterns for deeper healing.
ART fosters faster trauma processing and emotional healing, while DBT skills reinforce coping strategies for sustainable recovery. This integrative approach is highly effective for resistant trauma and quickly reduces symptoms of PTSD.

What a great experience. Our household has been super sick and most of us haven’t been able to keep fluids down. This is exactly what we needed to get strength and energy back. Annie was so good at the poke that we barely felt it.
