What a Typical Course of Care Looks Like

Many start with weekly or twice-weekly therapy; DBT skills or psychoeducation can accelerate progress. If medication is part of your plan, we coordinate so therapy and pharmacology reinforce each other. As symptoms stabilize, we move to maintenance and relapse-prevention with a schedule that fits your routine.

Family & Support Systems

With your permission, we include supportive people to learn validation, boundaries, and communication strategies that make gains stick at home and work.
