DBT-Informed Therapy in Missouri
Grounded support for navigating emotion, trauma, and relationships with care.
What Is DBT-Informed Therapy?
DBT-Informed therapy is a compassionate, skill-focused approach designed to help you regulate intense emotions, manage interpersonal stress, and move through life with more clarity and confidence. It’s based on Dialectical Behavior Therapy, originally developed by psychologist Dr. Marsha Linehan, and is especially effective for people who feel emotions deeply and often feel misunderstood by traditional approaches.
At Safe Harbor Counseling of Missouri, we don’t follow a rigid DBT protocol. Instead, we offer DBT-Informed online therapy, which means we weave DBT’s most powerful tools, mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, into trauma-informed, one-on-one therapy that meets you exactly where you are.
How We Practice DBT-Informed Therapy at Safe Harbor
With therapists Michael Mason, M.Ed., LPC, NCC, and Misty Relos, MA, LPC, NCC, you’ll receive care that is attuned, inclusive, and adapted to your life.
We don’t just offer skills, we help you live them in real-time, real life.
- “I’ve worked with clients who have spent years trying to control their emotions only to feel more disconnected. DBT doesn’t ask you to shut down your feelings, it helps you stay connected to them without being overwhelmed by them.”
— Michael Mason, M.Ed., LPC, NCC
Here’s what to expect from our DBT-Informed work:
- Skill Application, Not Scripts: You’ll learn to recognize and navigate emotional patterns using tools that fit your values and culture.
- Mindfulness in Motion: Grounding practices that go beyond the cushion, usable in daily life, conflict, or crisis.
- Boundary Work Rooted in Values: We teach how to set limits with strength and softness, even when guilt or fear show up.
- Support Between Sessions: After scheduling, you’ll receive a welcome email with next steps, session orientation, and an optional check-in form to help us tailor our work to what matters most to you.
