My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I have taught DBT for the last 4 yrs in my women's group. It is about regulating your emotions and keeping yourself emotionally safe no matter what life throws your way. This practice also helps clients to make sound rational decisions by using critical thinking and mindfulness.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have taught CBT for years throughout therapy with different modalities, depending on what the patient needs are

Lydia will not beat around the bush, she is honest but in all love. She will help you see areas of thought and perspective from others point of view and help you reframe your own if needed. I love her mantras from DBT, they're getting hardwired in my brain with repetitive hearing and speaking them myself. Lydia will help you look at the big picture and focus on what YOU can do, because ultimately you're only in control of yourself. I can honest I can be with Lydia when confusion rolls in.

It was like Lydia knew me already for years- she understood exactly where I was coming from, she understood my feelings and concerns. She gave me lots of encouragement and advice. She listened. I initially chose to meet Lydia from her bio online because of her speciality in working with people with anger management issues. My working with Lydia is a perfect match for my treatment.
