Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT is a wonderful evidenced-based therapy and is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy, drawn from many therapeutic modalities and areas of thought—designed to help folks:

• name and reality check feelings

• know the purpose of feelings

• develop the ability to calm oneself during moments of crisis or overwhelm

• improve relationships through more effective communication and healthy boundary-setting

• learn to observe oneself with more kindness

DBT can help folks to learn practical, empowering skills that they may not have learned from their caregivers early on and can help build a life where you get more of what you want out of life.

Body-Centered Therapy

• Body-centered therapy focuses on the connection between the mind and body, recognizing that emotional experiences are often stored physically.

• This approach integrates movement, breathwork, and somatic awareness to help clients release tension, process emotions, and cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness.

• By addressing the physical manifestations of emotional distress, body-centered therapy can be particularly effective for trauma recovery and stress management. It can also help you in being more in touch with your intuition and can help you to get more of what you want out of life.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

• Mindfulness-based therapy incorporates techniques that encourage present-moment awareness, self-acceptance, and gentleness towards self.

• By fostering mindfulness, folks can develop greater emotional regulation, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being.

• Research has shown that mindfulness-based approaches can be effective in managing anxiety, depression, and emotional distress, to name a few.
