  • Additional Information

I have trained/worked with Dr. Paul Holmes at the Emotion Management Program between 2002-2007 & therefore all clinical training/work to date has been from a contextual perspective - we have incorporated ACT into DBT (ACT-ified DBT as I call it). I use ACT as the treatment of choice for general outpatient and a combination of ACT + DBT skills for persons working on Stage II level of treatment - in private practice.
