The Resilience Centre has a new Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Clinic.
DBT is a treatment that was originally developed by Dr Marsha Linehan for individuals who meet the diagnostic criteria for Borderine Personlaity Disorder (BPD). Recent research on this therapy has demonstrated that DBT is not only useful for those with BPD but also for other challenges that stem from emotional dysregulation such as:

Ida Soghomonian, Registered Psychologist
Megan Webster, Provisional Psychologist
