Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
You’re Not “Too Much.” You’re Not Broken. You Just Need the Right Tools.
If you’ve ever been told you’re too emotional, too reactive, or too “hard to help,” you’re not alone.
Many of our clients arrive after years of being misunderstood—by other providers, by their families, or even by themselves. They’re exhausted, stuck in cycles of emotional chaos, self-harm, or relapse, and unsure how to move forward.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers a new path. A grounded, evidence-based way to build emotional regulation, healthy relationships, and lasting recovery—step by step.
What Is DBT
DBT is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy developed to help people who experience extreme emotional intensity. It teaches life-changing skills in four key areas:
Mindfulness – staying present and grounded
Distress Tolerance – surviving crisis without making things worse
Emotion Regulation – understanding and managing powerful feelings
Interpersonal Effectiveness – setting boundaries and navigating relationships
Who Benefits Most From DBT
- Emotional dysregulation and mood swings
- Self-harm or suicidal ideation
- Trauma responses or CPTSD
- Borderline personality disorder (BPD)
- Intense relationship struggles
- Substance use as a way to numb emotional pain
- Feeling out of control or overwhelmed by emotions
