Jennifer Palau

​​​​I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and a Certified DBT Clinician by the Linehan Board of Certification. DBT is an evidence-based treatment for teens and adults who have difficulties managing emotions and behaviors. It emphasizes learning skills to replace behaviors that do not work, and to address problems that cause difficulties in how we function in life. DBT maintains that while you may not be responsible for all your problems, you are responsible for finding the solutions- and we will formulate a plan for those solutions together. It also requires that you accept yourself fully as you are in this moment while also making the necessary changes to meet your goals. I'm also trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices. I am looking forward to meeting you! Reach out to schedule a free 15 min phone call so we can see if we are a good fit for each other. The relationship between therapist and client is very important, and it can take time to feel comfortable with someone new which is why I invite phone calls before meeting. Or if you prefer, we can get started by scheduling your first appointment.
