As a therapist, I want to help you develop a life worth living. We will work together to set goals, learn new coping skills, implement new behaviors, and explore values so that you can build a life that you are passionate about. In the words of Marsha Linehan, creator of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, I believe, "the most caring thing a therapist can do is to help clients change in ways that bring them closer to their own ultimate goals."
I am advanced- intensively trained in DBT and work with a team of DBT therapists. I provide DBT for adults, DBT for adolescents, DBT for children, DBT Prolonged Exposure for PTSD, and DBT for Complex PTSD. I also offer DBT Skills Groups which include mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness skills.
I also work with couples, parents and families in learning behavioral management tools and validation strategies. I have completed level one and two of The Gottman Method Training for treating couples. For more information about the services I provide please visit www.cztherapy.com.
