View Robin Stitt's profile

What is your go-to approach for dialectical behavior therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people with dialectical behavior therapy is mindfulness exercises. I find the best benefit in meditation and focusing on the present because it has been shown to help people cope with pain and reduce anxiety and depression

What tools do you teach in dialectical behavior therapy?

I teach the following tools in dialectical behavior therapy:

Mindfulness - Going into the self and learning to observe feelings and emotions
Distress tolerance - Tolerating stress (or crisis) and not resorting to maladaptive behaviors
Emotional regulation - Identifying, processing, and releasing negative emotions and feelings
Interpersonal effectiveness - Dealing with conflict effectively while increasing self-respect

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in dialectical behavior therapy?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in dialectical behavior therapy when their actions and thoughts change.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement dialectical behavior therapy?

Clients can supplement their time in dialectical behavior therapy with yoga, exercise, relaxation, and guided imagery (body scanning).

What should someone do to prepare for starting dialectical behavior therapy?

To prepare for their first dialectical behavior therapy session, an individual can “think” about what they would like to change about themselves in the now.

I have been seeing Terryn Maher for a couple of months now and she is awesome!! Very knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, thoughtful, caring, etc. I could go on for awhile. I’ve been in counseling with another therapist for about 14 years but I already feel like I’m getting so much more from working with Terryn. Thriveworks on a whole has been great to work with as well. They are easy to work with and schedule appointments with. I was nervous about working with a company over directly with just the therapist but it has actually worked out well. I highly recommend them!
