History
The DBT Clinic was founded by Larry Smith, LPC in 2011. Since then, we have grown, and the clinic now has three clinicians, each intensively trained in the DBT model
Specialties
Life can be messy and feel overwhelming, and sometimes we can feel ill-equipped to handle it effectively. We might find ourselves having a difficult time controlling our emotions and reacting in ways that we later regret. Perhaps we blow up at others, pushing those closest to us away; or we might turn on ourselves with self-criticism, self-harming behaviors and/or thoughts of death. We can find ourselves trapped in troubled relationships, or stuck in worry and despair. Sound familiar? If you, or a loved one, can relate to this, then you have come to the right place. DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) may be helpful for you! The DBT Clinic in close-in Portland, OR provides full fidelity DBT services, including individual and group therapy from our highly trained staff.
