Bio
DBT is an evidenced based treatment which synthesizes cognitive and behavioral therapies. DBT helps adults and adolescents struggling with emotion dysregulation to increase safety, improve mood, and relationships. DBT has been the most rewarding work I have done as therapist. As a client, using DBT has shown to improve your relationship with food and body image. You will learn effective solutions to make a choice between using new tools or acting on your eating disorder.
