Title: Need recommendation for DBT individual therapist in Northern New Jersey.
Post by: NotPerfect on June 05, 2014, 02:04:30 PM
My spouse has been going to a well structured and effective DBT skills group for a year and 3 months.

DBT program requires an individual therapist for her that will also give phone coaching to help her use the skills in real situations.

The skills group leader is not an option and the referrals given have been dead ends.

Does anyone know a good DBT therapist in Bergen or Passaic county NJ?

You can private message if you like.

Thank you

Susan Walden, in Cliffside Park... . She is amazing!  She is the one that figured out right away, that my wife has BPD, unfortunately, I couldn't get my wife to go with me.  She is a licensed therapist.  I can't publish her # on here, but if you can't find it, let me know.  She may be listed as Susan Greenberg Walden or Susan Walden Greenberg.

I highly recommend her.  She is $150 an hour and doesn't take insurance... . However, it is worth it, as I've gone to 3 other therapists and NOT ONE even picked up on the symptoms and put it together.  I even had to explain what BPD was TO ONE OF THEM!  Also, She recommended Stop Walking On Eggshells and the minute I read it I thought it was written about my wife and I!
