Specialized Services

  Community and Family Resources offers a variety of specialized behavioral health care services to assist clients in meeting their treatment goals and overcoming challenges. Our professional staff maintains training in evidence-based and state of the art treatment programs designed to “go the extra mile” in order to support clients in the recovery process and develop skills necessary for achieving healthy and productive lives.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) utilizes skill building techniques, which teach us how to deal with emotions and life stress in ways that improve our ability to manage our feelings and promote better relationships. The four modules of skill development in DBT include mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be a helpful approach for clients who struggle with feeling controlled by their emotions, experience difficulty building healthy and stable relationships, find it challenging to understand or accept their own experience, or struggle to maintain a positive outlook.

Community and Family Resources can help clients overcome barriers to treatment through the use of technology. If distance treatment is determined to be a good fit, we can utilize tools such as secure webcams and phones to bring outpatient treatment to those who cannot come to it. The number of in-person office visits required may be reduced through participation in this program, though they may still be required at times.
