At our therapy practice, we proudly offer dialectical behavior therapy in Lawrenceville, NJ, for individuals who want to develop practical skills for managing emotions, building healthy relationships, and improving overall well-being. DBT is an evidence-based approach designed to help people who experience intense emotions, chronic stress, or patterns of self-criticism and reactivity find greater stability, balance, and self-acceptance.

Originally developed for those with borderline personality disorder and chronic self-harm behaviors by Dr. Marsha Linehan, DBT has since been proven highly effective for a wide range of things, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional dysregulation. Through DBT, you’ll learn concrete tools to regulate emotions, tolerate distress, communicate effectively, and live more mindfully.

We can help you strengthen awareness, self-compassion, and coping skills that allow you to move forward with confidence and intention. During your DBT sessions, you can expect:

-Guidance in understanding and managing emotional reactions, helping you respond with intention instead of impulse.

-Support in building distress tolerance skills, so you can face life’s challenges without resorting to avoidance or harmful coping.

-A collaborative, validating environment where your experiences are respected and explored with compassion.

-Attention to relationship dynamics and communication, allowing you to express your needs clearly while maintaining connection.
