“People talk about caterpillars becoming butterflies as though they just go into a cocoon, slap on some wings, and are good to go. Caterpillars have to dissolve into a disgusting pile of goo to become butterflies. So if you’re a mess wrapped in blankets right now, keep going.”
— Jennifer Wright

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
DBT focuses on 4 skill sets including emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness and mindfulness. Emotional regulation skills help manage emotional responses and change negative or unwanted emotions. Distress tolerance skills allow you to make it through an emotional incident without making it worse. Interpersonal effectiveness skills focus on healthy communication and healthy boundaries for more satisfying relationships. And mindfulness skills focus on staying present in the moment. Since many distressful emotions tend to lead us to reacting to the past or the future, mindfulness allows us to experience the here and now.
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy, or EMDR, is a specialized technique that facilitates reprocessing distressful or traumatic memories. The process involves developing resources and using bilateral stimulation to reduce symptoms of emotional distress from these experiences.
