In this course, we will delve into the fascinating world of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) - one of the most effective therapeutic approaches for individuals struggling with emotional dysregulation, self-destructive patterns, and borderline personality disorder. Developed by psychologist Marsha M. Linehan, DBT combines elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness practice, and dialectics to provide individuals with the skills to better manage their emotions, improve interpersonal relationships, and enhance overall well-being.
HI, I’M LISA VAN MEIR.
I am an independently licensed professional counselor in New Mexico. I am a co-owner of a private practice in Albuquerque and am very passionate about my role in providing mental health services for my community.
Marigold Professional Services offers professional supervision and continuing education courses for clinicians and allows me to expand my passion to reach fellow clinicians and students. I am grateful to continue reaching like-minded professionals and share my knowledge with those clinicians wishing to expand their practice.
A little more about me-I was born and raised in Albuquerque, NM and plan to stay in the Land of Enchantment for many more years! I am happily married to my wife of 6 years, have a rambunctious toddler and 3 spoiled pups. I am a proud member of the Albuquerque Fire Fighter family and LGBTQ+ community. When I choose to set time for myself, I enjoy yoga, dying my hair fun colors, anything True Crime and am expanding my novice piano skills! Oh, and you may catch me at Disney World….often!
