Regulate. Reconnect. Reclaim Your Life.
Crosby DBT’s mission is to create a space where people with BPD, PTSD, and chronic emotional dysregulation are met with skill, structure, and deep compassion. Intense emotions are not a character flaw. They are actually the nervous system doing its best to survive.
This practice specializes in guiding clients from the earliest stages of stabilization and safety, through trauma processing, and into meaningful change. Together, we build the skills to regulate overwhelming emotions, reconnect to safe and fulfilling relationships, understand identity with clarity and self-respect, and move toward education, career, and life goals that reflect who you truly are.
This is not just about symptom reduction. It’s about building a life worth living that is grounded in stability, connection, and purpose.
Who can this help?
This program may be right for you if:
your emotions feel bigger than your life.
If shame runs deep.
If your inner critic is relentless.
If relationships feel intense, confusing, or chaotic.
You fear abandonment.
You feel easily hurt or criticized.
You pull away, then crave reassurance.
Your moods shift fast and hit hard.
It takes hours or days to “come back down.”
You panic at your own feelings.
You shut down/ dissociate.
Act impulsively or recklessly.
You struggle to trust.
You question who you are.
Your goals, values, and identity feel unclear or unstable.
Sometimes it all feels hopeless.
At Crosby DBT, you will receive the help you need to steady your emotions, strengthen your sense of self, build healthier relationships, and move toward a life that feels chosen instead of chaotic.
How does it help?
Every service in this practice is intentionally designed for individuals living with BPD, PTSD, or chronic emotional dysregulation.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy DBT combines weekly individual therapy and group skills training to help you stabilize your emotions, reduce crisis behaviors, and build practical tools for daily life.
Radically Open DBT RO-DBT focuses on strengthening relationships, increasing flexibility, and reducing loneliness by helping you open up, connect, and respond more effectively to others.
EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy CPT are trauma-focused treatments that help you process painful experiences, reduce triggers, and decrease the day-to-day suffering that trauma can create.
The Gottman Method offers structured relationship counseling for couples or families who want healthier communication, stronger connection, and more productive conflict resolution.
DBT ACES and Career Counseling support you in building a stable identity, clarifying your values, setting meaningful goals, and moving toward education or career paths that reflect who you are becoming.
Where you begin depends on what we discover together in your assessment. Your goals, your history, and your current needs guide the path forward.
What is the process like?
Step 1: Free Consultation
Start by scheduling a free 20-minute video consultation. This gives us a chance to meet, ask each other general questions, and see if we’re a good fit to work together. You can book that here.
Step 2: 90-Minute Assessment
If we decide to move forward, we’ll schedule a 90-minute assessment. During this session, I’ll ask questions to better understand your background, current symptoms, goals, and what kind of treatment you’re hoping for.
Step 3: Treatment Plan Presentation Call
After the assessment, I’ll take about two days to reflect and write up a tentative treatment plan tailored to you. Then, we’ll have a follow-up phone call where I’ll share my recommendations and talk through what treatment would involve, including the level of commitment it requires.
Step 4: Treatment Commitment Call
You’ll have 3–4 days to consider whether the proposed treatment plan feels like a good fit. We will schedule another call to answer any questions you may have or help clarify anything. By the end of this call, you will decide if you are committing to move forward with one of the treatment paths.
Step 5: Orientation
If you choose to begin treatment, we’ll start with an orientation period. This is when you’ll learn the foundational elements of your chosen treatment path and begin setting personalized goals. The orientation is generally about a month.
If your treatment includes a skills class, you’ll also complete a separate orientation for that part of the program.
Step 6: Treatment Starts
Following orientation, you will start your sessions and skills class (if applicable for your path). We will have Progress Check-Ins every 60 days, where we’re checking in on the goals we’ve set and if any adjustments to the treatment need to be made. I’ve designed the paths to take approximately 6-9 months to complete, all, of course, depending on the client’s goals and needs.
Step 6: Additional Treatment or Graduation from Treatment
Once your initial treatment path is complete, you’ll have options:
You may feel there’s more for us to explore together, so we can talk about continuing with another treatment path that supports your evolving needs.
Or, you may feel ready to complete your work with Crosby DBT or with therapy all together. At this point, we would agree to close your file and offer any necessary options for future follow-up treatment.
What about cost and insurance?
First and foremost, I want to express how grateful I am for the people who invest their time, effort, and money into the treatment I do with my clients. I’m really very honored that people would place such a value on this work. That being said, one of my biggest aims is to get you your time, effort, and money’s worth out of this process!
My session fees are as follows:
Intake Session/ Assessment (90 min) $200
Individual Sessions (50 min) $150
Groups/ Classes (60 min) $60
I am not paneled with any insurance, and so this would mean that you would be responsible for paying the full session fee (what we call self-pay or private-pay). I can offer what’s called a super bill for you to submit to your insurance to see if they can refund you for any out-of-network behavioral health benefits. Everyone’s insurance works differently with these benefits, so I encourage you to reach out to your insurance provider with any specific questions.
