DBT is now being utilized for a wider variety of problems, including substance abuse, eating disorders, impulsivity, and self-injury. DBT has also been adapted to be utilized with adolescents. Teens who may benefit from DBT have experienced several of the following:
· Recurrent suicidal behaviors, threats, and self-injury
· Anger problems
· Relationship problems
· Mood swings
· Impulsive behaviors
· Poor sense of self
· Fears of abandonment
· Family conflict

We are not a full service DBT clinic, and do not offer family skills or adult DBT skill groups or phone coaching. Dr. Hirsch is well trained in DBT, and we do implement DBT skills with foundational knowledge and skill where applicable.
