What is your go-to approach for dialectical behavior therapy?

My go to approach for helping people in DBT is to assist them with developing the skills that will assist them with improving their ability to effectively manage their emotions.

What tools do you teach in dialectical behavior therapy?

I teach the following tools in DBT:

  • Mindfulness
  • Emotional regulation
  • Distress tolerance
  • Interpersonal effectiveness

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in dialectical behavior therapy?

I know that a client is making meaningful progress in DBT when they indicate a reduction in the frequency, duration, and intensity of painful emotions and an improved ability to regulate their emotions.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement dialectical behavior therapy?

Clients can supplement their time in DBT by practicing mindfulness techniques such as 54321 grounding techniques and mindfulness breathing as well as making lifestyle changes that can improve their ability to regulate their emotions.

What should someone do to prepare for starting dialectical behavior therapy?

To prepare for their first DBT session, an individual can consider how they deal with their emotions right now. Do they allow themselves to feel emotions or do they fight them? Do they avoid them? Do they try to hide them?

I am pleased to have someone I can tell how I am feeling that I would not express to family or friends. The medication helps me to get a better night sleep and helps me feel better the following days and to cope throughout the days that follow.

I'm very fortunate to have gotten such a great Therapist Lauren Lowe. She is a very good listener and helps me with my anxiety. Lauren gives me ideas how to manage the anxiety. I see her every Wednesday afternoon and go over what has happened for the week to help me cope with things I have problems with. I look forward to see her and all the help she has given me. I rate her very highly as a Therapist.

I took my preteen child there, who did not want to go at all and after 1 session my child was willing to go back, reporting the counselor was so nice! I instantly saw a change in my child, we will continue to attend throughout the summer to continue to make progress. When we arrived, I instantly felt comfortable in this calm environment. I recommend this office to anyone.
