At Willow Tree Therapy, my mission has always been to provide a safe, supportive space where growth and healing can naturally unfold. Over time, my approach has evolved to ensure every person I work with feels truly understood, empowered, and equipped with the tools they need to navigate life’s challenges.
Today, I’m excited to share that Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) is now part of my offerings – a powerful addition that beautifully complements Counselling, NLP, and Coaching.
Why DBT?
DBT was originally developed to help people manage intense emotions, build resilience, and create more balanced relationships with themselves and others. It combines elements of cognitive-behavioural therapy with mindfulness practices, helping you:
Understand and regulate emotions more effectively
Develop healthier coping mechanisms
Improve communication and relationship skills
Build resilience to stress and overwhelming situations
These skills are not only transformative for those facing emotional distress but can also benefit anyone seeking a more grounded, mindful, and self-aware life.
How DBT Blends with Counselling, NLP, and Coaching
What makes Willow Tree Therapy unique is how I tailor my approach to each client. Adding DBT to my toolkit means you now have access to a multi-layered, fully integrative experience:
Counselling: A safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and life experiences. DBT enhances this by introducing practical skills to manage overwhelming emotions as you process your story.
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming): A method for reframing limiting beliefs, shifting thought patterns, and unlocking personal potential. DBT complements NLP beautifully, helping ground these mental shifts with emotional regulation strategies, making changes more sustainable.
Coaching: A forward-focused approach to setting goals, building confidence, and creating positive momentum. DBT adds a layer of emotional resilience and mindfulness that helps you stay on track, even when life throws unexpected challenges your way.
This unique blend means we can work on past experiences, present emotions, and future goals – all at once – giving you a truly holistic path toward healing and growth.
What This Means for You
Whether you’re coming to Willow Tree Therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, DBT provides practical, life-changing tools you can start using immediately. When combined with Counselling, NLP, and Coaching, it allows you to:
Gain deeper self-awareness and self-acceptance
Build emotional resilience and mental clarity
Replace self-sabotaging patterns with empowering habits
Move forward with confidence, hope, and purpose
I believe therapy and personal development should never feel “one-size-fits-all.” With DBT now part of Willow Tree Therapy, you have access to a truly tailored approach that supports mind, heart, and future direction.
