Online Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) in Detroit, Ann Arbor, & Throughout Michigan

Looking for DBT Online Therapy in Michigan?

Sometimes it feels like your emotions are out of control. No matter how hard you try, you feel overwhelmed or debilitated by your thoughts and feelings. Despite putting in a lot of effort to manage them, your emotions continue to interfere with your relationships, work, school, or goals. You wonder why your mood swings last longer than the people around you. You tend to lash out at people close to you even though you love and care about them.

People say you are just too sensitive

Some people tell you that you have anger problems or you are overly “sensitive.” You get frustrated and annoyed easily at yourself and others which makes it hard to have consistent and healthy relationships. You struggle with your identity and knowing who you are and what you want. You feel easily abandoned by others and wonder why you tend to have conflicting relationships with family, friends, or partners. When you feel abandoned, it’s hard not to take your feelings of hopelessness and emptiness out on yourself and engage in self-harm, alcohol or drug use, or risky behavior. 

DBT Online Therapy can help you live the life you want!

What is DBT Therapy? 

DBT is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy developed by Marsha Linehan in the 1970s. DBT therapy is divided into four modules- mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. These modules focus on helping individuals find the “dialectic” in their lives, meaning identifying both what they can change as well as what they need to accept. DBT online therapy involves worksheets, skill building, and homework between sessions.

What Conditions Does DBT Online Therapy Treat?

You are tired of being judged. You are sick of being othered. Living with a mental health condition is already hard enough. But what makes things worse is constantly feeling as if you're being judged by others for something that's beyond your control. Often, people can be quick to make assumptions about you when you have a mental illness - that you are weak, unreliable, or "crazy". This couldn't be further from the truth. The ongoing stigma surrounding mental health disorders can leave you feeling isolated, ashamed, and hesitant to seek out help from a DBT therapist.

DBT can help you with the following:
