What We’re All About At DBT & EMDR Specialists

At DBT & EMDR Specialists we hope to be a resource for the mental health community, our patients, our colleagues, and our friends and neighbors in the greater Twin Cities metro area. This blog will be an important part of that, providing us with a platform to inform people about our practice and services, share our thoughts on issues related to mental health and treatment, and provide our perspective on news and current events.

This first post is about taking a moment to explain a bit about who we are and what we are here for. We think the first bold heading on our website’s home page says it best: Your Partners In Building A Better Life.

From the moment someone decides to seek our help, our trauma-informed team of therapists strives to be a dependable partner every step of the way, providing our clients with the support and guidance they need to be successful on their healing journey.

One of the best ways to understand who we are is to highlight what we are not.

We Are Not One-Size-Fits-All

You may think of therapy as being confined to a quiet room, a couch, and a notepad. Not here. Our practice is built around what our clients need; not around what we prefer to do or what our comfort zone is. We have developed and modified programs that meet the unique needs of children, teens, and adults from all walks of life, including military veterans and those suffering from chronic pain or struggling with chemical dependency. This includes programs such as:

• DBT Prolonged Exposure
• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
• Art Therapy
