Navigate Complex Challenges With Adult DBT

 

Some people just feel things more intensely than others, and there’s nothing wrong with that. At the same time, if you’re having trouble managing those feelings, or surrounded by people that don’t seem to understand your emotions, it can lead to persistent and traumatic invalidation and cause a number of behavioral and mental health concerns. Some people struggle with feelings of hopelessness or feel trapped in an endless cycle of confusion. You don’t have to let complex behaviors or thoughts rule your life. If you struggle with any of the following, therapy can help:

 

  • Gaslighting

  • Eating disorders

  • PTSD

  • Childhood trauma

  • Emotional abuse

  • Relational trauma

  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)

  • Depression

  • Sexual trauma

 

Adult DBT teaches essential tools and skills to help you cope with intense emotions that interfere with life. High-stress situations can increase lingering symptoms that make everyday tasks seem unbearable. I, Dr. Shimon Littman, provide personalized adult DBT treatments that meet your needs. I offer fully adherent, comprehensive DBT to help individuals cope with emotional dysregulation and learn to better navigate interpersonal relationships. Therapy helps you learn specific skills and shape your thoughts and behavior patterns to find emotional freedom.

Do I Need Therapy?

 

Everyone has emotions and we all struggle with managing or controlling our emotions at one point or another. If you’re someone that feels like you’re regularly overwhelmed by your emotions, you’re acting out on your emotions in ways that you later regret, or if you’re emotions are getting in the way of you doing the things that you value, then DBT can help. Many people also find that they struggle with interpersonal relationships, because often the people in your life don’t seem to experience emotions in the same way you do. DBT can help you learn to better manage and more effectively express your emotions so you can find balance. 

​

How Will Adult DBT Help Me?

 

DBT focuses on helping individuals manage emotion dysregulation and achieve personal growth. It’s an evidence-based therapy method that addresses symptoms associated with various mental health concerns. I take the time to help you identify the source of intense emotions and behaviors. DBT uses four main parts: individual therapy, phone coaching, DBT skills group, and team consultation. This comprehensive approach targets various symptoms that hinder you from living the life you want. 

​

What Can I Expect From My First Session?

 

You can think of our first therapy sessions as a conversation. We will discuss your past experiences with therapy, trauma, and family, and try to get a sense of what you are going through, how those challenges are impacting your life, and how therapy can help. We will also discuss your goals and current challenges. You can ask me about my work experience or what to expect from future therapy sessions. I provide online therapy sessions that fit your schedule and help you feel comfortable in your surroundings.
